That was the 1900 Games in Paris, France. Three events were contested, individual show jumping, high jump, and long jump. There was no equestrian in the 1904 and 1908 Games. It made its comeback in 1912 and has been a part of the Olympics ever since.

Equestrian featured for the first time in the Olympics in 1900 in Paris, France. The event was not featured in the 1904 and 1908 Olympics but it made its way back to the Olympics in 1912. It has been featured in every Olympic ever since.

No one invented it, it started so long ago that no one knows the true person to first ride a horse. But much of riding today came from World War 1 where the horses were used as transportation, or I guess a tank in a sense.
