Excerpt from Great Stone Monuments in History and Geography On January 25, 1913, there arrived at the U. S. National Museum the fossil skull of a horse which had been sent from the interior of Alaska. Hitherto our knowledge Of Alaskan horses has depended On very scanty remains, such as single teeth, or a very few associated teeth, and a few bones, or fragments of them. These scanty remains had, however, been found at a considerable 'number of places; and, meager as they were, they showed that at some time in the past horses had been widely distributed in that apparently inhos pitable region. A map is here presented (fig. 1) 'which shows the localities, where, as far as the writer knows, evidences of fossil horses have been found in Alaska and Yukon territories. Doubtless many remains have been discovered which have not been reported; and possibly a few announcements have escaped the notice Of the writer. The skull here described was discovered, in the course of mining operations, by Mr. C. P. Snyder, near Tofty, Alaska (fig. I I a small mining town Situated on Sullivan's Creek, about 24 miles south west Of Rampart and 7 miles northwest of Hot Springs. Rampart is on the Yukon River, about 4° east of the center Of the territory. Sullivan's Creek empties into the Tanana River. The skull has been deposited for the present in the U. S. National Museum, and has been given the number 7700. In some of the cavities Of the specimen is, an extremely fine-grained deposit; a fact which shows that the skull had been buried in the silts, which are so abundant along the great rivers of Alaska.
