When did dead animals (mayta) become prohibited (haram) for muslims?

I have gone through the verses in the Quran where dead animals (mayta) is mentioned to be prohibited for a Muslim to eat *(except situations where it really is necessary)*. What I can recall for now is that I've read the verses: 2:173, 5:3, 6:145 , 16:115 **Is it possible to draw a conclusion of when (mayta) first was prohibited in the Quran?** If possible, which verse would that be? In my (small) analyze I've done, I would guess it was in 16:115 or 2:173 (maybe in surat Ana'am too), but God knows best. Also I don't neglect the logical possibility that it was prohibited before it even was revealed in the Quran. **Are there records of hadiths where it says that dead animals (mayta) is prohibited to eat, before the prohibition was revealed in the Quran?** *If records like that doesn't exist, it wouldn't mean it never was prohibited before, because truly we don't have all "hadiths" ever existed, so we can't know for sure.*
