Caspian horse basic information

The Caspian is actually a miniture horse, and not a pony, despite reaching a maximum of 12 hh. It is thought to be one of the oldest horse or pony breeds in the world today, dating back from the now extict miniature horses of Mesopotamia, who lived in the region from 3,000 BCE until the 7th century. The ponies now inhabit an area between the Caspian Sea and the Elburz Mountains.

The ponies range from 10.2-12 hh, and average at 11 hh. However, improved feeding programs at the Norouzabad stud has resulted in horses with a height smaller than their parents, which may indicate that the original size of the breed is around 9 hh. Additionally, it is likely that the stock is not completely pure.
