Symbol of wealth and status. Horses were integral to a thriving economy and an essential part of victorious warfare. Figurines have been found in abundance in ancient Greek religious sanctuaries, where they would have been sold to visitors to leave as offerings to the gods
The original horse of which only the front part remains was dedicated to Athena ca 490-480BC and is now in the Acropolis Museum in Athens.
