The known history of the horse in Britain starts with horse remains found in Pakefield, Suffolk, dating from 700,000 BC, and in Boxgrove, West Sussex, dating from 500,000 BC. Early humans were active hunters of horses, and finds from the Ice Age have been recovered from many sites. At that time, land which now forms the British Isles was part of a peninsula attached to continental Europe by a low-lying area now known as "Doggerland", and land animals could migrate freely between what is now island Britain and continental Europe. The domestication of horses, and their use to pull vehicles, had begun in Britain by 2500 BC; by the time of the Roman conquest of Britain, British tribes could assemble armies which included thousands of chariots.

  • La historia del caballo en Bretaña comienza con los restos de caballo encontrados en Pakefield (Suffolk) ―datados del 700 000 a. C.― y en (West Sussex) ―datados del 500 000 a. C.―. Los primeros humanos eran activos cazadores de caballos, y se han encontrado varios hallazgos de la Edad de Hielo en diferentes lugares. En ese tiempo, la tierra que ahora forma las Islas Británicas era parte de la península unida al continente europeo en un área baja actualmente conocida como Doggerland, por la que los animales terrestres pudieron migrar libremente entre lo que es ahora Gran Bretaña y Europa. La domesticación del caballo, y su uso para jalar los vehículos, comenzó en Bretaña desde 2500 a. C.; en el tiempo de la conquista romana de Britania, los britanos podían juntar ejércitos que incluían mil (es)
  • Des chevaux domestiqués sont présents en Grande-Bretagne à partir de l'âge du bronze, vers -2000. Les archéologues ont retrouvé des mors utilisés pour atteler des chevaux, et des roues de chariots ont été retrouvées à Flag Fen et à , quoique ces véhicules étaient peut-être tirés par des bœufs et non par des chevaux. Les preuves manquent pour affirmer que l'on montait les chevaux durant le Bronze ancien, même s'il est possible que la monte à cru ait requis des objets qui n'ont pas subsisté ou n'ont pas été découverts. Le combat à cheval est documenté durant le Bronze final. Des poneys sont domestiqués dans le Dartmoor vers -1500 (fr)
