We've been together a while

Dear Readers,

New discoveries show that horses and humans have been together a thousand years longer than previously thought. Click here to read about an ancient Asian horse farm: 5,500 year old horses worked for man
Of course, not all of the horses were just pals, but there are revelations about selective breeding (the fleeter horses were bred to chase their heavier cousins), and lots more.
I see a new career here: an Indiana Jones-style equine anthropologist!

Best,
Terri
