The horse was central to the image of the medieval warrior-aristocrat and changed the face of warfare. What can archaeology tell us about medieval warhorses? This will present some of theresults from a research project on warhorses in England between the Saxon and Tudor periods, considering the physical remains of horses, equestrian material culture and horse breeding landscapes, as well as iconographic and documentary evidence, to present a new and more rounded understanding of the warhorse and unpick its complex and ever-evolving interrelationship
with medieval society through the centuries.
