Es una pena que no expliquen exactamente lo de que ya domaban caballos ¿por algunos de los útiles que han encontrados que se podían
usar para ello ? porque me imagino que el hecho de que que aparezcan esculturas de caballos no significa que se domaran.
Comentario por Servan ayer
¿Serán más antiguos que los pequeños caballos de tipo Przelvaski de las estepas siberianas?
? Y domesticar caballos significa todo un atalaje y diversos conocimientos. Me parece que entre los semitas el asno fue primero que el
caballo. Los nombres del asno nos vienen de lo súmero semita, los del caballo y sus atalajes no.

Si domesticaron caballos,parece que no quedó memoria en la zona¿no?(o o se ha encontrado todavía nada al respecto )¿se desplazarían
hacia Anatolia ,el Caspio etc?

Me deja muchas dudas esa información, no por la parte histórica ( que tranquilamente pudo haber pasado) sino porque pudo haber sido un
invento para ganar turismo, y no sería la primera vez..
