It is clear that we have here a wild sheep that corresponds excellently well with the *Ovis vignei*. The horn measurements given by Lydekker for the *Ovis vignei* of the Kopet Dagh, if applied to the horn-cores in the manner followed with the skulls already mentioned, would correspond to a longitudinal diameter of about 70 mm. and a transverse diameter of about 54 mm., and would, therefore, agree very closely with the horn-cores of the Anau wild sheep from the culture period I*a* in the depth of — 15 feet.
