"Horses Domesticated 9,000 Years Ago in Saudi ArabiaRecent discoveries on Botai culture suggest that Botai culture settlements in the Akmola Province of Kazakhstan are the location of the earliest domestication of the horse.
According to others first domesticated the horse in modern Bashkortostan representatives Agidelevskaya culture.
I believe that the first domesticated horses 7-9 thousand years ago, representatives of haplogroup R1b, who lived in the Southern Urals and adjacent plains. Domestication of the horse led to the emergence of lactose tolerance gene. As well as possible carriers of R1b spread around the world, to conquer Europe.
Previous estimates had dated horse domestication back only 5,000 years."
