The famous horse owned by Alexander the great was tamed by young Alexander when nobody else could break him. He was known for his courage and stamina, riding into many battles fearless. Bucephalus was Alexander the Great’s horse and is considered by some to be the foremost famous horse in history. Alexander and Bucephalus’ initial meeting was unique but demonstrated truth character of one of the best generals altogether of history. It all started when a horse dealer offered the horse to Alexander's father, Philip II of Macedonia, for the large sum of 13 talents. The horse proved to be too vicious and unmanageable and wouldn't allow anyone to mount him. Alexander, just a boy at the time, undertook the challenge to tame the horse, much to the amusement of the older men around him. Alexander, however, had noticed that the horse was scared of its shadow and gently turned its head toward the sun and was ready to mount him and fasten the bridle. Philip II was so impressed and declared that Alexander would secure for himself an outsized kingdom, as Macedonia was too small for him.
