Ancient DNA reveals an early adoption of horse culture by Native Americans

Research output: Contribution to journalShort surveypeer-review

Abstract

Native Americans of the Plains and Rocky Mountains are renowned for their horsemanship. Taylor et al. recently used ancient DNA and other bioarcheological approaches to document how horses dispersed throughout America and transformed Native American societies following their introduction by the Spanish in 1519, well before the arrival of European settlers.
