These cuts are closely equivalent — the same or nearly identical cut across different butchery traditions.
Both are PGI suckling-lamb traditions in southern Europe — Castilian (cordero lechal, ≤21 days) and Roman (abbacchio, ≤60 days). Different regional protocols and preparation traditions.
These are near equivalents in the way butchers and cooks use them. If you can source either one, you're very close to the same result.
