History
The Deliboz was a traditional local breed of Oriental type, with similarities to Persian and Turkoman horses;Template:R it was distributed mainly in the Agstafa, Qazakh and Tovuz rayons of north-western Azerbaijan, and also in neighbouring areas of Armenia and Georgia. In the 1930s and 1940s, under the Soviet régime, a number of horses were selected from the general horse population as typical of the Deliboz type; some of these were crossed with Arab and Karabakh stallions. From the 1950s there was no further introgression from the Karabakh; cross-breeding with Arab and Tersk stallions continued.Template:R
The Deliboz is named for the Deliboz stud farm, which ceased to exist during the Second World War.Template:R
