The Horse in the Ancient World Book PDF Summary

"Some cultures had extensive equestrian records, others very meagre deposits. Working through the centuries we see how the horse was utilised from early domestication on the Eurasian Steppes, in the Mesopotamian civilisations, in Egypt, Assyria, Urartu, Iran, Media, Persia and Greece until under Alexander the Great the horse became a vehicle for his world expansion. Aspects not usually considered are strongpoints of the text. These include breeding, horse husbandry, control mechanisms, veterinary and hazard aspects, and the different systems of training for chariot and cavalry warfare."--Jacket.
