The original Arabian horses were bred for various purposes, depending on the specific strain of Arab (which was traced through maternal lineage).
Some were bred to be smaller and have short-distance speed, while others were bred to be taller and have great endurance. One strain of Arabian was bred mostly for looks and was a more refined looking breed of Arabian.
Overall though, the Arabian was bred to be an intelligent, friendly, family horse. High-end mares were actually kept in the tents with their owners in order to prevent them from being stolen during the night.
