Historical Inspiration

The Celts were supreme horsemen, and their skill as mounted warriors made them formidable opponents. The horse represented nobility and prestige, and was often used as a symbol of kingship. Horses were also associated with Epona, the Celtic goddess of fruitfulness. The man who could take the reins of this representative of the goddesses was a man who held power in his hands!
