| Summary: | The domestication of plants and animals began in the Neolithic era, over 5,000 years ago. This emancipation from the wilderness, occurring alongside the sedentarization of humans, generated a territorial reorganization that facilitated new relationships between species. This article proposes to explore spatial organization and our lifestyles with regard to the use of horses through time. It explores the relationships of animals and architecture through the domestication of the horse, an animal that sits at the center between the notion of “nature” and that of “culture”, which it has influenced. The horse was not a tool but an actor in the transformation of territories, which can be seen through architecture. These scales of architecture and infrastructure open up new perspectives on the spatial organization of human societies through their relationship to equines. |
