Yes but anthropologically speaking they are white caucasian from Spain and Portugal unless they have bred with native americans or africans and then they would be considered mixed race 200 years ago they may have been refered to as creollo ,quadroon, octaroon ,half breed , which was how to determine how much non hispanic blood was in them, which was a legal basis to recognise their legal / citizenship acceptance status in society at that time.

Hispanic is a term for the Spanish speaking areas of the Americas, such as most of South America and Central America.

Hispanics do not have a single ethnic category, but is rather a mixing zone of the Europeans and the Amerindians. The Europeans who came are Caucasians, the Amerinds are not.

The majority of Hispanic people are a mixture of races: white-black, native-white, native-black, or native-white.
