We have evidence that a horse was ridden in Dereivka, 6,000 years ago. His body was found buried with other items in a ritualistic way and the wear on his teeth suggested a bit had been in his mouth for around 300 hours. Dereivka was Norh East of the Black Sea. The Stredny Stog culture lived there. Horses could have been ridden before this and we have either not found their bones or else they were ridden in a bitless bridle so there is little evidence, however it is unlikely they were ridden much before this. You will find more information on 'the cult stallion' on Google or from Steve Budiansky's book The Nature of Horses.
