Odd toed ungulate, or hoofed mammals, such as horses, rhinos, and tapirs, may have their evolutionary origins in Indian subcontinent. While horse remains and related artifacts have been found in Late Harappan (1900-1300 BCE) sites, indicating that horses may have been present at Late Harappan times, horses did not play an essential role in the Harappan civilisation, in contrast to the Vedic period (1500-500 BCE). The importance of the horse for the Indo-Aryans is indicated by the Sanskrit word Ashva, "horse," which is often mentioned in the Vedas and Hindu scriptures.

  • Odd toed ungulate, or hoofed mammals, such as horses, rhinos, and tapirs, may have their evolutionary origins in Indian subcontinent. While horse remains and related artifacts have been found in Late Harappan (1900-1300 BCE) sites, indicating that horses may have been present at Late Harappan times, horses did not play an essential role in the Harappan civilisation, in contrast to the Vedic period (1500-500 BCE). The importance of the horse for the Indo-Aryans is indicated by the Sanskrit word Ashva, "horse," which is often mentioned in the Vedas and Hindu scriptures. (en)
  • El caballo ha estado presente en el sur de Asia desde al menos la mitad del II milenio a. C., más de dos milenios después de su domesticación en Asia central. La primera evidencia incontrovertible de restos de caballos en el subcontinente indio datan de los principios de la cultura suat (la cultura de las tumbas de Gandhara, en Afganistán y Pakistán, de alrededor del 1600 a. C.). Hay algunas afirmaciones sobre la existencia del caballo en épocas anteriores, incluso en la mitad del III a. C.milenio, pero generalmente no son aceptadas. El tema es de cierta importancia porque ayuda a datar la migración indoaria en la India. El ashuá (‘caballo’, en sánscrito) es uno de los animales importantes que tienen referencias en las más antiguas escrituras hinduistas. (es)
