History
English term or phrase: bridles of rushes
The North African horses were little more than ponies, but tough and wiry.
They first appear in history at the time of the invasions.
They were so well trained that they often followed their masters, when the latter went on foot, like dogs ; they were ridden without saddles, and often without bridles, being guided by the touch of a light switch.
In some few cases bridles of rushes were employed, but they are not heard of among the Eastern Libyans.
