FROM DESERT SANDS TO GLOBAL FAME - The Whirlwind Story of the Arabian Horse
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มิ.ย. 2023
- Join us on a journey through time as we explore the rich history of the Arabian horse and its progression along time modernity. For centuries, this magnificent breed has been prized for its beauty, grace, and versatility. From desert nomads to European royalty, the Arabian horse has captured the hearts of people around the world.
We look into both fact and myth as we delve into the Arabian horse's ancient origins, tracing its lineage back to the ancient Bedouin tribes of Arabia. We'll then explore how the breed evolved and spread across the globe, highlighting key moments that have shaped its development.
See how along history this prized gift was so cherished only now to be lost in world that has reduced its importance to one of show and competition.

I totally agree there is nothing more beautiful on this earth then the arabian horse
Such a shame its function is restricted to show and competition.
@@tareqkandari7277 i love to see them free their beauty is so awesome it is spellbinding
Grace and beauty. Match made in equine heaven.

I own 6 Arabians. They are intelligent, beautiful but some are very hot blooded. 4 Geldings, 1 very opinionated Chestnut Mare but her mother, my older mare is the most kind and gentle horse with the little children that I give riding lessons to. They can be challenging to ride but are beautiful to look at especially when they do a floating trot. And they are never mean.
Which tells you they’re intelligent, each with a different and unique personality !
The Arabian horse is Mesmerizing and beautiful ❤❤❤I hope their breed will be protected and honored forever.
I really hope so as well. It's a frightening predicament. It all has to do with passion. And if that passion fades then so might the future of the Arabian. But I am an optimist and I believe such a creature of beauty hasn't told its final tale. More will be spoken and heard of this amazing creature. Thank you so much for watching and I am glad you connected with the Arabian.
This video, as beautiful as it is, made my cry. 3 years ago I needed to out my Hadban/Saqlawi lined Arab down. After 23 years from foal to death. I was with him in his last seconds. I will never forget the trust, the inner flame and love in his eyes. Miss you.
Thank you so much for sharing such sentiments. Must have been very tough. 23 years is a lifetime, but I’m sure there are so many heart warming and wonderful memories that will last for many lifetimes.
This was very interesting about the founding mares. My mare had a very pronounced jibbah when she was born, but now has a less refined head. She is a larger girl at around 15.1hh. I love her to bits!
Abby, thanks so much for watching and sharing. Arabians are indeed extremely beautiful creatures, your mare, pronounced jibbah or not is more beautiful because she is yours. They are wonderfully kind and special creatures, we just can't help but be flabbergasted when we see them in all their grace and majesty.
I grew up with Arabian horses! My first horse was a registered half Arabian. I also had a Sheila Varian Arabian. Gold V! They are awesome horses!!!!
Hi Susan. Its passionate people like you that will assure the continuity and legacy of the Arabian. Nonetheless, everyone overwhelming finds their beauty unrivalled! Thanks so much for watching and hope you enjoyed!
Magnificent creatures !
Yes indeed, noble, intelligent and loyal. Human attributes I hope all humanity reflected.
The most beautiful, intelligent, loyal and loving breed of horses❤❤❤
Indeed an amazing creature.
I trained to do 100k with an arab mare but got injured. I felt only an Egyptian Arab could handle the endurance requirements for such a grueling race. Now i can only dream of those days. Arabs are truly the most beautiful horse, highly spirited and all! The Godolphin Arabian is an awesome story
Sorry to hear about the injury. Hopefully the road to recovery is as swift as the Arabian. 🙏🏼. Arabian are a delight to simply be around. Majestic, powerful, and at times, more humane than humans. Thank you for sharing.
The most beautiful, intelligent, loyal, loving and magnificent creatures to ever walk this earth❤❤❤ Truly majestic
Agreed fully.
thnx for reporting ...

@@tareqkandari7277 alright pal.
Greatly appreciated! 👍🏼
Awesome work 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks so much Mohammed. It’s such a beautiful history for the Arabian Horse. Sometimes such a noble creature that’s more human than humans.
I have noticed a concerning trend in some Arabians. I have seen the dished concave of the face becoming more severe, so much so, in a few I've seen, that I asked an equine vet about it. She responded that she has seen it as well, fortunately not in high numbers. and, she has also seen the negative consequences. I can see a future for these horses having breathing problems as the upper nasal bone deforms enough to have a respiratory impact narrowing the passage of air. It is also very unattractive. These severely dished heads probably will not do well, especially in endurance races. (IMO)
I completely agree with you. And it’s the strictly show competition element that is driving this genetic alteration. For some it seems that the various subtle yet sharp beautiful features of the Arabian aren’t quite enough. And it’s regrettably being supported by those who are positioned as “Experts” that award such degradation, in my opinion, of the natural breed. It’s a shame really as the consequences are yet to be defined.
Thank you so much Adriana for your thoughts.
The show breeders all do it
Yes. A byproduct of the separation of aesthetic from performance competition. Very sad indeed. 😢
They have become a terribly warped version of what had been perfection in horse flesh. Shameful. But this seems to happen to way too many breeds of animal. Many are horribly inbreed too. It is so wrong.
Agreed. Nature’s beauty is perfection. I don’t know why we try to interfere or interject. Every instant of this pride has never led to something better.
فيديو اسطوري ❤️🔥🐎
شكرا ً جزيلاً على الكلام الجميل. 🙏🏼

الخيول العربية اليوم ليست كالماظي ، اصبحت اظعف وذات شكل مختلف عن السابق صارت تملك رؤوس شديدة التقعر وقوام هش ورقاب نحيلة شديدة التقوس ، وفي الحقيقة هذه ليست صفات الحصان العربي الحقيقي كما يزعم او يعتقد بعظ الناس
اشاركك الرأي ١٠٠٪. للأسف الناس ما عندهم قناعة بجمال وأصالة الفرس العربي.

what is the statue at 7:02 ?
That’s the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin.
🤍
Thank you for watching and supporting!
And who created the first mare !
That's a very good question! Not sure Hazel but there's no mythology I can find there to provide you with an answer. An equine rib perhaps?
Actually, genome mapping shows that the first hot blooded horses developed once and only once in Central Asia, most likely Turkmenistan. After the end of the last Ice Age, horses, being a cold steppe creature, went extinct in most of Eurasia except the steppe proper. If there had been a significant horse population in the desert, they most likely would have been a preferred food animal over gazelle but there is no evidence for this. After the wheel was developed in Mesopotamia, onagers (wild asses) and oxen were used to pull vehicles for which there is a great deal of archeological evidence, but not horses. The ancestors of modern horses seem to have been introduced into the Middle East after the development of true chariots with spoked wheels from the Sintashta culture east of the Urals and when riding became more feasible after the appearance of the Dom2 mutation in the Pontic Caspian steppe. This mutation produced both a stronger back and less startle reflex which produced more tractable individuals. The story of the creation of the Arabian is a particularly beautiful folktale but is not the actual story. Also the Bedouin preferred bay horses, not chestnuts, considering them more durable. And least you think I am dissing Arabians, I own one. If you want to compete in 100 mile endurance races, don’t waste your time and money on anything else.
No thoughts of you dissing the Arabian. The fantastic history you explain means you are passionate about the equestrian world. Thank for sharing and taking the time to add to the factual history of the Arabian. Folklore is necessary though as a complimentary narrative to factual history. It triggers our emotions and imagination. And so I think it deserves its place in the telling of any story. Thanks again, grateful for you watching the video!
I love the Arabian type of horse .
The way they are bred these days ...with a seahorse face is a far cry from the Arabian horse .
It's not beautiful at all , and these thin faces will give health problems too !
Hi Petra. I think you’re not alone with your thoughts. I feel the same way. There is natural beauty and it’s always the best kind as it takes balances perfectly the elements of form and function.
