Abstract
The archaeological investigations recently undertaken in the vicinity of the Lower Pleistocene site of Aïn Hanech led to the identification of additional Oldowan horizons and the discovery of new loci, among which was the locus of El-Kherba. Besides the lower Pleistocene faunal remains associated with Oldowan artifacts, the 1999 excavations, carried out at El-Kherba, exposed a bovine skull with complete horn cores. It belonged to a taxon never been previously encountered or described in the Plio-Pleistocene and Lower Pleistocene deposits of the Maghreb. It receives here its first description.
