there were hores once before in the Americas. the plains indians had remembered the horses in oral history and when they came back, they were tamed and used like the horses from the ages before. Like no time was lost.

They had been extinct for about 8000 years at that point.
Is extremely unlikely, especially as there is no evidence at all that horses were ever domesticated before 3700 BC, and that was in asia.
you should talk to natives more often, we have long oral histories
even steven hawkings agreed, he wrote about it in his last book

The aren’t many natives in Europe so that not stop easy.
Stephen Hawking was a very smart man, but not a historian.
The length of the oral history doesn’t matter if they never ride the horses before they went extinct though.
