| Description | People shape horses through their needs and demands but also through their awarness and understanding of themselves and their environment. The horse populations encode the history of the region and the environmental circumstances. The horse is a cultural animal, a kind of palimpset. It is therefore an archaeological and historical sourse. Indeed, it is a cultural heritage. The paper analyze how this can be dealt with using three examples: Kladruby n. L. stud, Napajedla stud, and the Cretan horse issue. |
