Arabian
horses have so much more to give to humans then many
people realize. For several thousand years these horses
and the Bedouins have been depending on each other for
their lives. The result of this is a horse that is genetically
predisposed to have a relationship with humans. Treated
properly they will do anything for their human!

Authorities
are at odds about where the Arabian horse originated. There
are certain arguments for the ancestral Arabian having
been a wild horse in northern Syria, southern Turkey and
possibly the piedmont regions to the east as well. The
area along the northern edge of the Fertile Crescent comprising
part of Iraq and running along the Euphrates and west across
Sinai and along the coast to Egypt, offered a mild climate
and enough rain to provide an ideal environment for horses.
Other historians suggest this unique breed originated in
the southwestern part of Arabia, offering supporting evidence
that the three great river beds in this area provided natural
wild pastures and were the centers in which Arabian horses
appeared as undomesticated creatures to the early inhabitants
of southwestern Arabia. There can be little dispute, however,
that the Arabian horse has proved to be, throughout recorded
history, an original breed-which remains to this very day.
About
3500 years ago the hot-blooded horse assumed the role of
king-maker in the east, including the valley of the Nile
and beyond, changing human history and the face of the
world. Through him the Egyptians were made aware of the
vast world beyond their own borders. The Pharaohs were
able to extend the Egyptian empire by harnessing the horse
to their chariots and relying on his power and courage.
With his help, societies of such distant lands as the Indus
Valley civilizations were united with Mesopotamian cultures.
The empires of the Hurrians, Hittites, Kassites, Assyrians,
Babylonians, Persians and others rose and fell under his
thundering hooves.
"Arab" is
a Semitic word meaning "desert" or the inhabitant
thereof, with no reference to nationality. In the Koran
a'rab is used for Bedouins (nomadic desert dwellers) and
the first certain instance of its Biblical use as a proper
name occurs in Jer. 25:24: "Kings of Arabia," Jeremiah
having lived between 626 and 586 B.C. The Arabs themselves
seem to have used the word at an early date to distinguish
the Bedouin from the Arabic-speaking town dwellers.
This
hot blooded horse which had flourished under the Semitic
people of the east now reached its zenith of fame as the
horse of the "Arabas." The Bedouin horse breeders
were fanatic about keeping the blood of their desert steeds
absolutely pure, and through line-breeding and inbreeding,
celebrated strains evolved which were particularly prized
for distinguishing characteristics and qualities. The mare
evolved as the Bedouin's most treasured possession. The
harsh desert environment ensured that only the strongest
and keenest horse survived, and it was responsible for
many of the physical characteristics distinguishing the
breed to this day.
