Scientists on Wednesday said they had unraveled the DNA of a horse that lived some 700,000 years ago, a record-breaking feat in the young field of palaeo-genomics. The ancient find indicates that all horses today, as well as donkeys and zebras, shared a common ancestor that lived some four million years ago, twice as early as thought.The breakthrough also raises hopes that many fossils deemed useless for DNA sampling may in fact be crammed with genetic treasure, researchers said.
