The origin and development of the tack for horses and other riding and pack animals from the 5th century BC up to the 20th century AD.  It is based on a thorough research into representations of saddle rugs in Chinese painting, sculpture and applied arts. By comparison of these images with preserved saddle rugs, a useful typology could be developed, which is backed up by the structural analysis of the saddle rugs in the author's collection. This way preserved specimens, which are many, can be properly dated and ascribed to their place of origin.
