In a previous stucly on the Pontian fauna from Küçükyozgat I had stated that, in addition to the already determined species, there were still some indetermined specimens of Pontian gazelles in the Collection.(3) As since that time I have determined the species of a horn-core of a gazelle, I have considered it worthwhile to publish it in a short note, since the determination of other specimens of gazelles, other forms and the preparation of the full report will take considerable time.

Özet
Bu boynuz parçasını 1951 yılında Küçükyozgat'ın güneyinde bulunan fosilli sahada yaptığım bir kazı esnasında buldum.² Gazella capricornis Rodler ve Weithofer'e³ (Gazella rodleri Pilgrim ve Hopwood4) ait olan bu boynuz parçası, daha evvel Maragha5 ve Besarabya'da6 bulunmuş olan bu türün (species) Ponsien çağda Anadolu'da da yaşamış olduğunu göstermektedir.
