THE ARAB HORSE : History


THE ARAB HORSE  is widely considered as the starting point for all races the most modern in the world. The dominance extraordinary journey has ensured the race has received an incredible genetic purity. When these genes for breeding programs to introduce this gene has dominant influence on the renewal of a clear and powerful and has a refinement.

But let all modern breeds can return to their heritage for the Arab, they are the world's most famous thoroughbred race of the best known of the foundation. The blood was red specifically for its speed and performance, it is not possible with the Arab world for its strength, endurance, intelligence - even if you listen to his fans - this is pure beauty

History

there were a few horse breed books kept at the times the Arab horse was first being developed, the Bedu tries of Arabia maintain pedigrees by word-of-mouth rather than written record. In fact one of the earliest written history is of the Arab breed was not created until 786 A.D. when the Arab historian El Kelbi, attempted to document a written record of the pedigree history of the Arabian horse with their period recorded dating back to 3000 BC. Of course the accuracy of this record is a matter of conjecture is likely largely based on assumptions that certainly underlines just how ancient this breed is the development starting more than 5000 years ago.

Around 1000 years later the Emir Abd-el-Kader corresponded with theFrenchman, General Daumas , wherein he divided the history of the breed into four eras:

  • · New have a look at, Weimaraner Roman";">         Adam to Ishmael;
  • · New look at, Pyrenean Mountain Dog - Great Pyrenees Roman";">         Ishmael to Solomon;
  • · New also look at, Keeshond Roman";">         Solomon to the Prophet Mohammed;
  • · New also see, Scarlet Macaw Roman";">         and then from the Prophet onwards.

He also provided an explanation of the Arab's creation which, though beautiful, is at odds with the obvious genetic transformation this evolution of the Arab which had taken place over this time

"When God wanted to create the horse, he said to the South Wind, 'I want to make a creature of you. Condense'. And the Wind condensed. The Archangel Gabriel immediately appeared and took a handful of the stuff and presented it to God, who made a brown bay, or burnt chestnut, upon saying, 'I call you Horse; I make you Arabian and I give you the chestnut colour of the ant; I have hung happiness from the forelock which hangs between your eyes; you shall be the Lord of the other animals. Men shall follow you wherever you go; you shall be as good for pursuit as for flight; riches shall be on your back and fortune shall come through your mediation.' Then He put on the horse the mark of glory and happiness, a white mark in the middle of the forehead."

Clearly this is not an accurate history of the development of the Arabian horse that it does demonstrate the passions that can be invoked by this ancient but still relevant and magnificent horse breed.

The four eras proposed by Abd-el-Kader are more firmly rooted in fact.

  • · New look at, Friesian Horse Roman";">         The first the first error deals with the development of the horse other than to established their first recorded usage. Ishmael, the outcast son of Abraham and the first ancestor of the desert Bedu tribes, was a real person who made use of horses.
  • · New checkout, Pet Mice Varieties Roman";">         After the break-up of the Bedu tribes, which followed the death of Ishmael, the story and development of this desert horse continued in King Solomon's reign.
  • · New consider, Soft Bills - Toucans Roman";">         With total disregard for the Israelite law that forbade the keeping of horses on the grounds of idolatry, Solomon encouraged horse-breeding by keeping no fewer than 1,200 riding horses and 40,000 chariot horses in his royal stables. When it came to the Arabian horse rules even back then were meant to be broken
  • · New try, Thoroughbred Horses Roman";">         Finally, there is the influence of the Prophet Mohammed



Studs
The 18th and 19th century state studs of Europe,namely the  Marbach in Germany, Janow Podlaski in Poland, Babolna in Hungary, and the French studs at Pompadour, Pau, Tarbes, and Gelos, or played major roles in the development of the Arab horse the Arab horse. Undoubtedly private studs also provide direction though this is less well documented. The Potocki family, reflecting the long Polish association with these horses, bred superb Arabians at their famous Anton Stud. These Arabs were to extend their influence all over the world.

 In the United Kingdom, Wilfrid and Anne Scawen Blunt founded the Crabbet Stud upon their turn from Arabia Arabia in 1878-79, when it was clear the breed that point was in decline. Surely thereafter they purchased the remaining of the world's most renowned collection of Arabs, which at that point were owned by Abbas Pasha I. Crabbet horses went on to become the foundation courses for the development of Arabs not only in the UK but also in the US, Australia, and South Africa.

CONFORMATION
unique in appearance among the equine breeds is commonly asserted that only one true type of pure Arabian exists, but is one of short very fine, dry head with clearly visible waning. Face is notably concave, or dished, was the forehead is convex forming a shield shape known as the jibbah. The Arabians muzzle is so small it will fit into a child's cupped hand contrasting with very wide nostrils capable of flaring much wider. Eyes are enormous, expressive and captivating.

The late R.S. Summerhays, wrote that "in appearance they must be dark and deep in colour, very soulful in the mare, in the stallion showing great alertness, with enormous challenging dignity". The ears are short and mobile and curve inwards. The jaw bones are so well rounded that it is possible to placea fist between them. Another notable feature is the mitbah, the point where the head joins the neck. The greater the arch here, the more easily the head can be moved in all directions.

ORIGINS-ARABIAN SEA
the original birthplace of the Arab is likely never to be known that there is evidence they were present on the Arab Peninsula from the half thousand BC and there they remained in that your form of thousands of years. As the Moslems extended their reign cross this area in the seventh century A.D. the Arabian breed’s influence extended with them. Much later in the 18th and 19th centuries it was established in the state studs of Europeand then to private studs in the UK. From there they  spread to Russia, Scandinavia, the US, and the English-speaking countries, to become the major force in equine development.

Arabian curious a backbone of the whole consists of 17 ribs, five lumbar vertebrae of the coccyx and 16 were other breeds have 18 ribs see lumbar and 18 bones of the tail. And:.. "This bone formation allows the special form of back-and district with the high tail carriage combines the Arab movement in a pending action as invisible bounce on springs Some specimens have been known to heights of more than 15 hands high H often average about 14 , 3 hands up to be.
