Best Answer

Horses are not Indigenous to the Americas so they are not a traditional food source, but Native Americans did eat horse. During the US American Indian wars in the southwest, Natives would stock up on horses while traveling long distance. Some for riding, some as traveling food. As long as they had extra horses, they could settle for long periods without having to go out hunting.
