	Al Khamsa
		Al Khamsa horses are, according to the definition put forth by the club, those horses in the United States who are descended in every line from original Bedouin horses; horses bred by the Bedouin tribes of the deserts of the Arabian peninsula.
		Al Khamsa horses do not fit within the designation of a nationality, such as Polish, Russian, Spanish, etc. Some of the Al Khamsa foundation horses went to Egypt, some to England, some went to the USA, some to Argentina, some to Germany, and some to Hungary.
		While over half of Al Khamsa horses are described as straight Egyptian, it is not that they are Egyptian but rather that the foundation horses of certain breeders in Egypt came from the Bedouins of Arabia.

	Gregory Minissale: The Synthesis of European and Mughal Art in the Emperor Akbar's Khamsa of Nizami
		Indeed, to use the language of modern technology, the Khamsa is a fine example of the Mughal artists’ ingenuity in “uploading” these foreign elements into their own aesthetic and semantic structures.
		In the Khamsa, this technique is used in conjunction with another technique, that of painting distant landscape in pale blue in order to create the appearance of distance through gradual shifts of colour from dark to pale tones towards the horizon.
		The only difference in the Khamsa painting is that the angel writes on a scroll of paper, while in the other versions, the angel holds open the page of the book for the saint to write on.
