The History of The Modern Horse
The History of The Modern Horse
By Ray Cunningham
This is the first of several articles, tracing the history of the horse, as we know it, from the mists of antiquity, to modern times from research, the horse was known to the Aryans.
First, we shall, as a preamble, present a condensed version of the horse; then cover its fascinating history in depth.
The horse, is one of the most useful and intelligent of domestic animals, belonging to the same class as the ass and zebra. Distinguished from other animals by their single hoofs, the senses of the horse are very acute, and its faculties of observation and memory are highly developed. A place once visited seems never to be forgotten. With patience and kind treatment it can be trained in many directions, and is one of man’s most useful servants in peace, or war, in days of yore.
