Horse of the Vikings was short of stature, with a large head and shaggy bangs. The shortness of the breed is explained simply - they were easier to transport by water. With a short stature, it is also easier to move on the rocks and ice-typical landscapes of the country of the Vikings.

Now this breed is called the "Icelandic horse", because in its pure form it has been preserved and cultivated on this island.
