Riassunto

***PLEASE NOTE. This was an official university trial, and Dr. Nyland replicated this ancient text with horses led off a vehicle and off other horses at times throughout the SEVEN months of the trial, safely, under the scrutiny of welfare bodies, both university-associated, and independent. Please do not buy this book if you will allege that cannot be done (-it HAS been done). This book is available mainly for its HISTORICAL interest, and for PRINCIPLES which can be followed. The author does NOT suggest anyone is to follow the 7 months in its entirety. A 3000 year old fitness program for horses offers modern trainers the opportunity to improve horses' fitness while keeping them sound and happy. The program was named after its creator, the Mitannian Master Horse Trainer Kikkuli, whose horse conditioning techniques helped establish a military empire in around 1345 BC.

Su questo libro

L'autore:

Dr. A. Nyland translated the ancient Kikkuli Text, which was written on 4 clay tablets in Hittite cuneiform, into English. In 1991, Dr Nyland, then an academic of the University of New England in Australia, as well as Arabian horse bloodline researcher and long time endurance competitor, put Arabian horses through the entire program for the first time in 33 centuries. The results suggested that Kikkuli's methods achieved a standard of fitness in mind and body in horses unmatched by modern techniques.
