Dear Fernando:

A related issue that continues to interest me. Does the rider is mounted on a chair "to genet" left by the Arab domination in Spain, with short stirrups, and legs bent?

Affectionately. Fernando K

Sorry, translator)

It seems as the mounting a la Gineta is still used in Portugal in bullfighting.
Send me a PM with your email address and i will send you an interesting PDF article, writen in portuguese and english, about the two ways of mounting in the Iberian Peninsula.

I'm on my way to try to discover how to post a new topic, and have not read all replies to this one, yet, so I apologize if this is repetitive, but I have been told, and suspect it is true, that these are "pricks" or cattle prods.
