is of late Pleistocene origin. Given the uncertain relationships of late 

 Pleistocene horses in general and the likelihood of heterochronous 

 deposition, we did not assign the material to a particular species. 

 Pleistocene Equus was generally a grassland species (Kurten and Anderson 

 1980). 



Family Tapiridae 

 Tapiridae gen. et spec, indet. 

 Material— Left dentary, UGAMNH2068. 



Remarks — This edentulous specimen could not be assigned to 

 Tapirus with confidence, although the morphology is similar. 



Tapir us sp. indet. 

 Tapir 

 Material — Right upper deciduous premolar, UGAMNH2070, left 

 upper deciduous premolar, UGAMNH2071; right fibula, UGAMNH2069. 

 Remarks — The available material, while certainly Tapirus, could 

 not be referred to a species with confidence. Tapirs occur in wet 

 woodlands (Simpson 1945, Gray and Crammer 1961). 



Order Artiodactyla 



Family Tayassuidae 



Platygonus compressus LeConte 



Flat-headed Peccary 



Material— Axis, UGAMNH2072. 



Remarks — The material has the diagnostic characters of Platygonus 

 compressus which is thought to have wide environmental tolerances, 

 but was probably most associated with open woodlands (Martin and 

 Guilday 1967, Ray et al. 1970). The stratigraphic range is 

 Sangamonian to Wisconsinan (Kurten and Anderson 1980). 



Family Suidae 



Sus scrofa Linnaeus 



Pig 



Material— Left maxilla with P 3 and P 4 , UGAMNH1159; right 



humeral fragment, UGAMNH1160; right femoral diaphysis, 



UGAMNH1162; right radial fragment, UGAMNH1161; left humeral 



fragments, UGAMNH1163, 1158; right ilial fragment, UGAMNH1157; 



distal humeral fragment, UGAMNH1178; left femur, UGAMNH1156. 



Remarks — None of the pig material showed evidence of significant 

 mineralization. The pig was introduced during historic times and 

 represents a domesticate. Specimen UGAMNH1178 shows marks of a 

 saw.
