The Andravida horse is a rare light draft breed that comes from the region of Ilia in Greece. Traditionally the Andravida has not been bred outside of this region, a largely contributing factor to their low numbers today.
Their ancestors were heavier animals and used by the Greek for war mounts dating back as far as the 7th century B.C.
Refinement
Much later, during the 13th-15th centuries Arabian blood was infused into the breed, which created the lighter animal known today.
