It was these horses, fueled by Median alfalfa, that would give Assyrians, Scythians, Persians, Han Dynasty China, Alexander's Macedonians, and the Ottoman empires one of the world's greatest pre-ammunition and pre-engine powers. Horses that would go on to develop many other swift wartime breeds.

Access to these sacred grazing grounds influenced ancient cavalry prowess and gave empires nestled south of the Pontiac Caspian steppe great early advantage in raising and supporting elite warhorses. Horses that Alexander the Great and Emperor Wu would use in their expansion campaigns.

On the Nisean Plains south of Media, the ancestors to the Akhal-Teke grazed on fields of wild alfalfa. It is this food source that ultimately fed and shaped history's most famous and coveted cavalry mounts. The Heavenly Horses with their alfalfa built bodies would shape the world.
