<blockquote>
Bones of domesticated cattle (Bos taurus – see Figure 2) have been reported from different caves in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.<ref>Robert T. Hatt, “Faunal and archaeological researches in Yucatan caves.” ''Cranbrook Institute of Science'' 33 (1953), 1-42.</ref> In one instance these bones were found with those of an extinct horse, Equus  conversidens.  It is especially interesting that along with these cow and horse remains, human artifacts were found in association with them! The indication is that domesticated cattle and the horse coexisted with humans in pre-Columbian time. <ref>Joaquin Arroyo-Cabrales and Oscar Polaco, “Caves and the Pleistocene vertebrate paleontology of Mexico.”  In B. W. Schubert, J. I. Mead and R. W. Graham (eds.) ''Ice Age Faunas of North America'' (Bloomington, Indiana University Press, 2003), 273-291.</ref>
