Andalusian History

The Andalusian breed derives from Spain and Andalusia. They have mostly been bred in Spain and are very treasured there. Dating all the way back to 25,000 B. C. and the origins of the Iberian horses, the Greeks and the Romans were both fans of the Andalusian horses, using them in combative formats and as Calgary animals. The European aristocrats adored these animals and even some of the best schools for riding chose this breed to keep as their breed of choice. The Carthusian monks played a very important role in their lives as well. It has also been noted that several other breeds were taken from this particular style as they were well known animals for transporting those seeking to cross countries in exchange for goods and other trading purposes. Another interesting fact is that they are noted as being an excellent horse for mounting bull fighters. Back many years ago, experts mentioned those that were fond of the Andalusian breed experimented with the notion that horses bearing white socks would earn either good or bad luck and many that owned this breed practiced their own luck with the sock theory on these horses.
