Note 1108 — Chapter X · THE CULT OF THE HORSE

Guide to Horse Family, p. 14. Mr R. Lydekker, in a letter to the author, dated Jan. 6, 1909, stated that little is known of the Walthamstow skull exhibited in the Zoological Department (S. Kensington). There are other horse skulls from Pleistocene river-gravels to be seen, however, in the Geological Department. Most of our bone-caves (e.g. Kent’s Cavern, near Torquay) have yielded horse remains; and many specimens have been obtained from brick-earths and raised beaches. J. Cossar Ewart, Trans. Highland and Agric. Soc. of Scotland, 5th Ser., XVI. 1904, p. 233.
