I was referring to the 15th-16th century Spanish cookbooks that I am
familiar with. They contain many recipes for "carnero" (mutton), but I
could only find one that specified "cordero" (lamb).

Looking at my copy, I see that this is so. I know nothing about Arabic,
so perhaps HG Cariadoc or some other wise gentle could comment on
the terminology used in the original. Is it specific as to the age of the
beast? If so, then I then have to wonder: what changed (culinarily
speaking) between the Islamic period and the Christian era in Spain?
