Just for curiosity's sake. When did horses arrive in India? My understanding is that horses don't do very well in the tropics, especially in Africa and Asia due to tropical pathogens.
What is the most current accepted timeline for the domestication of horses?

a good counter.

Please write horses do not do well in the tropics (I am ignorant of this fact), meanwhile, I can
forward the messages posted in favor of African origins of horse.
