They are ufually of a black, colour, but there are fome bright bays and forrels. " The Egyptian horfe, " fays Burckhardt, " is ugly, coarfe in fhape, and looking more like a cart-horfe than a racer. Thin legs and knees, and fhort and thick necks, are common defedhs among them. The head is fometimes fine, but I never faw good legs in an Egyptian horfe. They are not able to bear any great fatigue ; but when well fed their adion is occafionally more brilliant than that of the Arabian. Their impetu...ofity, however, renders them peculiarly defirable for heavy cavalry, and it is upon this quality alone that their celebrity has ever been founded. " Of courfe this defcription applies to the horfe of Lower Egypt, while that of Bruce refers to the Uongola, or Nubian horfe, v/hich may be confidered as reprefented by the fculpture at the entrance of the fmall temple of Beit-Oualley (Plate i). The horfes reprefented in the frefco-painting from the tomb of a Scribe (Plate 2) are likewife Nubian horfes.
