Forums at the Society - Mongolian Army Mongolian horse racing is held at different horse ages.

przewalski The Przewalski Horse (pronounced "sha-val-ski" and also known as the Mongolian Wild Horse and/or Takh in its native country of Mongolia) is the only known true species of wild horse remaining on Earth. Accounts from natives report a Mongolian Pony mare interbreeding with one of the herds known to be of the last wild captures sold to Europe and US breeders. This means the next generation of equine breeders and enthusiasts will be able to appreciate and benefit from the study of new existing wild populations of the last truly recognized wild horse (not derived from domestic stock and the only known breed of horse to never be domesticated). www.spiritwoodsstudios.com /przewalski.htm

Sulphur Springs and Sorraia Mustang Webpage The indigenous horse of central Asia by contrast, the Mongolian wild horse, has a mealy mouth, and it also typically lacks the bi-coloring in mane and tail that is typical for the primitive Iberian horse, the Sorraia. Otherwise, the Tarpan wouldn¹t be extinct, the Quagga wouldn¹t be extinct, the Mongolian wild horse, the Exmoor, and the Sorraia, wouldn¹t have come to within a hair¹s breadth of becoming extinct. With a population like the Sorraia's, it isn¹t a question of low grade or high grade, it's a question of unique genetic resources which should be preserved because no telling when and for what reason they may prove invaluable at one time or another in the future. www.spanishsulphurs.com

They Hunted Tigers It would appear at this time that the domesticate horse came in three types, the shaggy Tarpan like steppe pony (Mongolian), the Arabian like chariot horse (Mittani horse), and the Celtic gaited pony. At present it is believed that their horses were small, tough and shaggy animals that were hardy enough to survive on little food and the coldest Siberian winters. The Celtic ponies were often gaited-a valuable asset for mounted horsemen without stirrups. www.horseoftheamericas.com /TheyHuntedTigers.htm

Asia Society - So important is the horse-head fiddle (called "morin khuur" in Mongolian) that there is a Mongolian saying, "A family should not be without a morin khuur. Without it the family is cursed." The horse-head fiddle is decorated with a horse's head carved from wood, and has two strings made of horsehair. While their basis is in traditional Mongolian music, Altai-Hangai has cooperated with jazz musicians, symphonic orchestras, dancers and actors at numerous venues in Germany, Holland, Denmark, Belgium, Italy, and Norway. asiasociety.com /pressroom/rel-altaihangai.html

HORSE - LoveToKnow Article on HORSE Prior to 1883 small horses were called indifferently Galloways, hobbies, cobs or ponies, irrespective of their height. In size and shape the modern race-horse is unquestionably superior, being on an average fully a hand higher than the Eastern horses from which he is descended; and in elegance of shape and beauty of outline he has certainly never been surpassed. It was then found necessary to distinguish clearly between horses and ponies, and, accordingly, all animals measuring 14 hands or under were designated ponies, and registered in a separate part of the (Hackney) Stud-Book. www.1911encyclopedia.org /H/HO/HORSE.htm

ECAI Silk Road Atlas - Instruments - Morin Khuur The Mongolian words morin khuur translate literally to mean "horse fiddle" and the instrument is instantly recognizable by the distinctive pegbox carved in the shape of horse's head. Traditionally the people of Mongolia are nomadic herders and their love of the horse is an important aspect of Mongolian national identity. The horse on the scroll of the morin khuur and the instrument's ability to imitate the galloping sounds of horses reflect this love. www.ecai.org /silkroad/instruments/morinkhuur.html   (239 words)

Chinese Figurines - Old And Sold Antiques Auction & Marketplace The horse is a typical T'ang type, which for the first time a representation of a Arabian horse is common in Chinese art in place of the sturdy little Mongolian pony which had the chief place until the western horses were introduced about the fourth century of our era. In animal sculpture the Chinese have always excelled in giving vitality and power to forms which are almost crude and appear to be casually modelled, as in the figure of the dog illustrated.
