The fascination with horses in ancient times may come down to the fact that they are so closely linked to many of the ancient Gods. A good example of this is that Poseidon is the God of horses and is said to have brought the first horses to the world.

Poseidon was also the father of numerous horses, including the legendary Pegasus.
Another crucial piece of Greek mythology concerns Athena, who is sometimes called the Goddess of horses.

love, respect and freedom are symbols and ties between horses, Gods and humans
