'The Cavalry General', now more commonly known as 'Hipparchicus', is one of the two treatises on horsemanship by the Athenian historian and soldier Xenophon. Hipparchicus deals mainly with the duties of the cavalry commander, which is called a hipparchus. It is a title used to refer to an ancient Greek cavalry officer who commands a hipparchia (unit of about 500 horsemen).
