Nailing down when a human being first got on the back of a horse has been a point of contention in archaeology and anthropology for quite some time. However, a group of scientist finally seem to have settled the argument and in this show, we’re going to talk about how they achieved this, why their results give us a far more reliable date for the advent of horse riding, what this might mean for our understanding of human history and the odd fact that the topic of early horse riding is not that widely talked about in the first place.
