Ep 1401 Horse: A Genetic Ride Back to the Beginning

Before the horse we walked everywhere, and it was a downright slog to get there. But 4,750 years ago, a mutant gene began working its way through the horse herds of the Eurasian Steppes. Then, about 800 years ago, Genghis Khan raced those horses throughout the World to conquer one and all. And so we ask:

Have you ridden a horse?

The Food Chain Radio Show - Podcast with Michael Olson hosts Ludovic Orlando, Molecular Archaeologist, Founder of Anthropology & Genomics Institute, and Author of Horses: A 4,000 Year Genetic Journey Across the World, for a conversation about the search for the World’s first horses.

Topics include how the search for the World’s first horses was conducted; where the most likely birth place of the horse was found; and how the evolution of the horse was directed by the various needs of people.
