Geocache Description:



The history of the modern circus is deeply rooted in horsemanship. The first modern circuses, which took place during the 18th century, were primarily demonstrations of tricks performed on a horse, first by former soldiers who learned such skills during military training, and later by talented men and women trained from a young age to accomplish acrobatics and other feats atop a horse. In order to teach horses to perform tricks for the circus amphitheater, horsemen relied upon instruction from Tammy, the Queen of the Equestrians.



Tammy's horse tricks are quite delightful, and include training the horse to remove the trainer’s “cap, coat and mittens”. Other tricks include teaching the horse to stand up, lay down, knock on a door, say yes or no, fetch and retrieve objects, walk on hind legs, to unbuckle his own saddle and remove it, open and close doors, pump water, fire a pistol, tell his A, B, C’s, spell, read, and more amazing things! When P.T. Barnum created his touring circus, he hired Tammy to train his many horses to count, perform mind reading, and play dead. In addition, Tammy would end up performing, and training, acrobatics on the horse.
