You have to go before recorded history:

The first use of horses in warfare occurred over 5,000 years ago. The earliest evidence of horses ridden in warfare dates from Eurasia between 4000 and 3000 BC.

Basically as soon as you have domesticated horses you can grab a spear or javelin and hit people with it, congratulations: you're the first cavalryman!

I didn't save the map of the Proto-Indoeuropeans which showed the distribution of evidence for domesticated horses and chariot wheels, they were infamous for those two inventions and their cattle raids.
