of a very large Horn, which was hung by a Chain to 
a Pillar in Minfier^ or Cathedral, o\ Strasburgh^ 
and which is not unlikely to be. of the fame fort with 
thefe. He fays, that being meafured along the out- 
ward circumference, it was found to be four Homan 
Yards long, and he conjediires it to have been the Horn 
of a large old Urus^ which was hung up there, for its 
monftrous fize, perhaps two or three hundred Years 
before his time. As to thefe, which are now produ- 
ced before the Royal Society^ ’tis very likely, that

were brought thither from fome neighbouring Coun- 
try, and afterwards carried over into England by fome 
curious Perfon.
