Abstract
dence of an extinct long-hored, straight-backed Bos primigenius, but its contribution to present breeds is not well established. Cattle, mostly Bos indicus, have existed in Africa for thousands of years.' The major groups appear to have been introduced into Egypt from Southwest Asia and to have spread from Egypt south across the Sahara, probably through the Nile corridor. Some groups then branched south to the Cape of Good Hope, while others spread west to the Atlantic.
