Bones Of Horse of Prehistoric
Age Found In Cave Creek Hills

Remains of what is believed to be
an extinct species of horse which
roamed wild in the hills of what is
now Arizona in the Quarternary or
Pleistocene period, were found yes
terday by j. T. Martin, j. p. Steele
and j. N. Oliver in the hills at the
head of Cave Creek wash. The frag-
mentary skeleton was found on the
surface of the ground in an excellent
state of preservation. leading to the
belief that it had been unearthed at
a comparatively recent date.
Portions of the skull and jaw bone,
unusually well preserved. a section of
the foreleg bone and a hoof. believed
to be one of two sections of two toes
of the front foot, were brought TO
Phoenix by the finders. Other bone
fragments were also found. they said.
The jaw bone is set with long rows
of double teeth, which taper down to
a pointed nose from a back jaw of
considerable breadth. The bone of
the shoulder blade was fully a foot
wide, Mr.. Martin said.
1.-TWO of three portions of the skull
and jaw bone We're found. The back
teeth are fully an inch wide, while
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1921-05-29

the front teeth are probably less than
an eighth of an inch. 1t was estimat-
ed that the head was fully 80 inches
long, judging from the gradual taper
of the teeth.
Historians know this animal as the
"Equus'. and he is supposed to have

some millions of years ago. He was
a one toe speciman, this hypothetical
ancestor of the present day domestic
horse, the first of the specie known
to the scientific world.
His home was in North and South
America, Asia, Africa and Europe.
but never in Australia or in the
oceanic islands. He inhabited the
open grassy plains and high plateaus
of the interior of the great continents.
In the new world, he apparently
became extinct, for when the Span
iards invaded America they found no
horses, wild or domesticated. The
Indians. who had domesticated the
Hama, the alpaca and the dog, knew
nothing of the horse and were
astonished and terrified at the sight
of the strange and unfamiliar animals
which the newcomers rode
