When Was Horses First Discovered. Sifting through fossil bones and teeth, paleontologists have traced the ancestry of horses back roughly 50 million years to a dog. The history of the horse family, equidae, began during the eocene epoch, which lasted from about 56 million to 33.9 million years ago. Instead, the first dom2 horses appear just before 2000 b.c., long after the yamnaya migrations and just before the first. During the early eocene there appeared the first ancestral horse, a hoofed, browsing mammal designated correctly as hyracotherium but more commonly called eohippus, the “dawn horse.”. In a study published last week in the journal nature, archaeologists used dna analysis to trace horse domestication to roughly 2200 b.c.e.—about 1,000 years later. For more than half their history, most horses remained small, forest browsers. Over the past 20 years, archaeozoological data seemed to converge on the idea that horses were first domesticated in. A brief history of horses.
