The child of a Spaniard (right) and a mestiza (middle) is a castiza. By Miguel Cabrera. (1763)
Castizo[a] (fem. Castiza) is a racial category used in 18th-century Colonial Mexico to refer to people who were three-quarters Spanish by descent and one-quarter Amerindian. The feminine form of the word is castiza.
The category of castizo was widely recognized by the 18th century in colonial Mexico[1] and was a standard category portrayed in eighteenth-century casta paintings.
