History

“

A corral is a building in which horses are housed. Horses provided the American Indians with speed and mobility, particularly during battle and when hunting large game such as buffalo. After an extended period of absence from the Western Hemisphere, the horse was reintroduced to the New World in the 1500s by the Spanish. As horses spread across the continent, the Plains Indians in particular became known for their skills as riders and horse breeders.
