    I disagree. Domesticated animals and love/romance go together in Turkey

    I remember watching a documentary about early civilization and how the first chariots may have been pulled by the ass/donkey of the time which would be similar to the ones in Iran today. I believe the donkey served and still does as a form of transport for farmers of the region.

    Domestication of animals was one of the greatest steps forward in early human civilization, others being agriculture and metallurgy. All three aforementioned technological advances in human history took place within the Armenian Highlands.

    By the way, the horse was also first domesticated in the Armenian Highlands and was first harnessed to carts for transportation.


    here you are: http://anthropology.net/2008/08/14/e...by-1000-years/



    You sure the horse was first domesticated in the Armenian Highlands? The consensus that I'm aware of attests that it happened in the 4-5th millenium BC in the Pontic Steppe. By the 3rd Millenium BC, Asia Minor got them too and used chariots to pwn their adversaries.

    The consensus based on archeological records that it first occurred in the Pontic Steppe makes sense because it corresponds very well to the early Aryan Tocharian migrations and their domination of the Tarim basin. It was a time when the Kurgan cultures traveled throughout Eurasia, the world was a small place for them. It would take less than a year to get to the other side of the continent. This changed when Asians became organized and adopted the technology of the Aryans. They displaced/absorbed the Tocharians and their eastward migrating counterparts and so the Tocharians became lost in time.
