Origin and history of breeding Caspian Horses
Caspian horses have only been recognised since the 1960s, but their origin undoubtedly lies much further back in time. Their modern story began in 1965 when an American resident in Iran, Louise Firouz, was looking for suitable animals for her riding school, the Norouzabad Equestrian Center in Tehran. The only horses available for both, adults and children, were Arabians and Turkomans, both of which were too tall for some of her smaller students. Word came to her of some small equines that were very horse-like in appearance, but pony-sized. The Caspian horse is an ancient breed of horse that originated in the region around the Caspian Sea. The breed is believed to be one of the oldest and most pure breeds in the world, with a history dating back over 4,000 years. Caspian horses were used by the ancient Persians and were highly prized for their beauty, strength, and endurance.
In the 20th century, the population of the Caspian horse decreased dramatically due to the loss of their natural habitats and the increasing use of mechanized farming equipment. In the 1970s, a group of enthusiasts in Iran and the United States began to work to preserve the breed. Today, the Caspian horse is considered a rare breed and is protected by several breeding programs and organizations.s.
