I was under the impression that all horses are descendants from mongolia and that the ones in north America are descended from the horses brought over by the colonizers

Ya was being a bit pedantic. Horses and camels originated in NA millions of years ago but died off several thousands years ago. Modern ones were reintroduced.

No, not horses. An ancestor lacking multiple features originated in North America. Much more different to a horse (even non-ridable ones used in antiquity).
