Intact horse skeleton from time of Romans was discovered

In 2015, in Cambridge, southern England, archaeologists discovered the remains of a horse, more than 2,000 years old. The animal’s almost intact skeleton reveals that it was suffering from a broken leg that was already beginning to heal. Scientists speculate that the animal may have been used to work in quarries that provided building material for a nearby settlement.
