[MR] First domestication of horses

[Roy B. Scherer]

         Where and when were horses first domesticated?
         Oh, yeah?  Prove it!
         This is written up from the Geographical Society of America, at:
<http://www.geosociety.org/news/pr/06-49.htm>.
         There's a much more broader, and more user-friendly, version 
of this in the November 2007 issue of ANALOG, but it's not online 
yet.  From <http://www.analogsf.com/0711/issue_11.shtml>, it's:
"Richard A. Lovett's fact article ventures into unusual but 
intriguing territory: "The Search for the World's First Equestrians." 
Who were they, how did they get that way, and how do we know? It's a 
fascinating look at both an often-overlooked wellspring of 
technology, and some of the less glamorous aspects of archeology. "
