A caparison is a covering, or cloth, laid over a horse or other animal, especially a pack animal, or horse of state. In modern times, it is used mainly for decoration in parades and for historical reenactments. A similar term is horse-trapper. The word is of Spanish origin, being derived from an augmentative form of the Latin word caput, "head".
