At the same time, 1491, you can do a map of horses in North America with the same result!

Depends on how far back you want to go.

Interesting! Wonder how that would've changed early American cultures if they hadn't died off?

Hey, just a little FYI but humans were in North America before the horse went extinct* so they likely did have some interaction with ancient cultures.
_* From what I gather there is heated debate as to whether the domesticated horse that was brought back to North America is truly non-native. I’m not a paleontologist nor phylogeneticist so I can’t speak to any of that.
