Virilio writes:  “Man is the passenger of woman, not only at the time of his birth, but also during their sexual relations....  Paraphrasing Samuel Butler, we could say that the female is the means that the male found to reproduce himself, that is to say, to come to the world.  In this sense, woman is the first means of transportation for the species, its very first vehicle, the second would be the horse with the enigma of the coupling of dissimilar bodies fitted out for the migration, the common voyage.”

From this, we seek to explore the phenomenology of man’s initial dismount from his primary vehicle, to mounting his secondary.

“As a species, horses could not have survived without human intervention.  Humans could not have created wealth-generating (and, for that matter, leisure) opportunities that come with large cities without horses.  As the perceptive 1881 New York Times editorial observed, ‘Deprived of their human servitors, the horses would quickly perish; deprived of their equine servitors, the human population in cities ... would soon be in straits of distress.’”[iii]

“Among the Scythians, when a leader died, his horses were killed & buried with him.  The expectation was that they would be re-animated to serve the dead man in the after life.”
