The History of Horses

There was a time when mankind did not have tamed horses to help with labor and travel. Humans had to do all the hard work themselves, they had to walk everywhere they wanted to go and they had to carry whatever they needed to take with them. There were no tamed horses to help them and horses were actually hunted for meat! So how did humans begin to see the benefit of taming these wild equine animals to help them with daily living? This webquest is all about the history of the horse and its domestication into a working animal.
