Which images? Because a horse type is Central Asian doesn't necessarily mean it was small so if a drawing were to blunder, it would depend upon time and more specific place of what that drawing was meant to depict. The Ferghana horses certainly were much larger than say, the Mongol pony.

My apologies, it was indeed naive from me to declare something without specifying what I meant. Naturally the later periods reduced the sphere of the mori ('mongolian') type horse, and the ancestors of the Turkmen horse like breed were dominant in the southern part of central Asia. I wanted to reffer to primarily how, the so to say 'classical' nomads of the Eurasian steppes: Scythian, (early) Sarmatian, Hun, Bulgar, Avar, Mongolk etc. primarily used short robust featured horses at least that's what I believe the archeological finds deduce. Naturally when these people moved into territory where other, more larger horse types were bred, they shifted to these types gradually. Alright, examples that I think as wrong interpretations: I am not sure about the more southern kushans, parthians, but I suspect they used the short, stocky type. Horses I find more faithful to the equestrian nomads are having resemblance to the przewalski horse. Like in these examples:

Tajik cavalry and Sogdian infantry and cavalry. Random Central Asian warriors. Golden Horde cavalry, Russian nobleman in the masked helmet. Lithuanians and a Zaporozhian Cossack.

Tajik cavalry and Sogdian infantry and cavalry. That's actually Gokturk (Tu-jue 突厥), not Tajik
