The domestication of the horse was first seen around 3000 B.C. in China where horse drawn chariots were used in wars and invasions. The horse was highly popularized in the art of the Romans with numerous popular pieces depicting the anatomical features of the horse to more dynamic sculptures of battles and chariot races.
