What area did horses come to first and were most helpful in the United States?
Horses first arrived to the southeastern part of the United States when the Spaniards first landed in the last decade of the 1400s. They helped the Spaniards conquer Central America and establish colonies there and into South America, as well as up into North America, colonizing areas which are now California, New Mexico, Texas and Arizona. Of course where the Spaniards explored, the range of the horse followed suit. In their conquests came across First Nation tribes and battled with them. The Plains tribes often stole horses or took horses from their victories or escapes in battle, or acquired horses that had escaped from the Spanish colonies. These horses became an intrinsic part of the Plains First Nation's livelihoods, from transportation to hunting and battling other rival tribes.
