Horses

Patented: History of Inventions

07-05-2023 • 29 mins

In this story, the cart really does come before the horse. Horse transport doesn't begin with people riding around on horses' backs. It starts with the invention of the Chariot.


Dallas's guest to explain the origins of horse transport and how it changed the world is William T. Taylor, anthropologist at the University of Boulder and expert on all things ancient horse related.


Saddle up partners, it's time to gallop back into the mists of time for another exciting story of invention!


Edited and produced by Freddy Chick. Senior Producer is Charlotte Long.
