“I have to believe it was much before that.“

I’d think so too, I don’t know anything about it.

Is there other research showing it’s earlier?

I have read that horses were domesticated before that, but they were too small to carry riders for long distances. They were better for pulling carts and packs, so chariots were used in war. It took a while to breed larger riding horses.

Go right ahead. But trustworthy Bible scholars and archaeologists tell us that mankind has only been on this planet approximately 6,ooo years. So in light of that, 5K is not a bad number for horsemanship.
