Akhal Teke - The Celestial Horse
Among 250 equine breeds known today on the planet the Akhal-Teke steed is generally viewed as a standout amongst the most old ones. Numerous analysts view it as the most antiquated one. Of aged noblesse, more seasoned than that of the Arabian or the English Thoroughbred, the Akhal-Teke is a full-blooded stallion that is second to none.
The Akhal-Teke's starting points are lost oblivious of
hundreds of years, or even centuries. Cuneiform writings found in Assyria let
us know about steeds or, as they were then called "jackasses from the
mountains" from Midis and Urartu. Tiglatpalasar (1115-1077 B.c.) kept in
touch with: "I seized immense crowds of stallions, donkeys, and other
steers from their knolls. I made them pay a tribute of 1200 stallions."
Herodotus gives a portrayal of ten holy steeds in wonderful
bridle that were preparing for the hallowed chariot of Akhuramazda in the armed
force of Xerxes. Those steeds were reared in the Nisei plain "in the
middle of Balkh and Midis." They were smooth, had long, thin and adaptable
necks, expansive eyes, obviously formed heads, slight and solid legs.
