Résumé anglais Horses in the New World: Cultural histories - Following a brief presentation on the diffusion of horses in North America, the "horse cultures" of four New World tribes are explored: the Blackfoot on the Great Plains, the Navaho in the Southwest, the Guajiros on the Caribbean coast and the Gran Chaco Guaicunis. A few myths elucidate the place of horses in each of these societies; and questions are raised about what has caused the differences observed in these four horse cultures.
