The Messara (also known as ''Cretan horse''〔Jasper Nissen: ''Enzyklopädie der Pferderassen''. Franckh-Kosmos Verlags GmbH & Co, Stuttgart 2003, ISBN 3-440-09723-4 (German)〕) is a light riding and draft horse found on the island of Crete off the coast of Greece. ==History==
The native mountain-type Messara pony exists on the island of Crete since year 1000 or longer.〔 The name comes from the Messara Plain where they are mostly found. Cretan horses were developed by crossing native and Arabian breeds imported during the Ottoman occupation in the 17th century.〔Hendricks, Bonnie. ''International Encyclopedia of Horse Breeds''. University of Oklahoma Press, 1996, p. 283. ISBN 0-8061-2753-8〕 It is now a rare breed with around 100 representatives.〔 Since 1994 there exists a studbook and a conservation programme has been started.〔(Messara description in the European Farm Animal Biodiversity Information System )〕
