The Choctaw Pony
By the 1700’s the horses brought by the Spanish to the Americas found their way to the Choctaw American Indian tribe. The gentle and kind horses were small enough to be considered a pony but they were incredibly strong and resilient. They were treasured and embraced within the Choctaw culture and valued so highly that some owners would be buried with their ponies upon their death.
