I was gonna be like "nah you're way off no way cavemen domesticated horses surely" but turns out after a quick google, depending on what you call cavemen, horses may have been domesticated in the Eurasian Steppes in like 3500 BC, and the Neolithic period ended in 2000BC

That is well past "caveman" times though. Writing existed in some places already at that point. It seems so recent to me. I can't believe so much has gone into horse domestication in only 5,000 years.

That's why I said "depending on what you call cavemen". It's technically still the stone age but the very end of it
