In this memoir, the author endeavours to trace the antiquity of the white oxen of Cadzou and of Tankerville during the historic period of Britain, but thinks that materials are altogether wanting for such an inquiry. No records exist in proof of these cattle being aboriginal; or, if introduced into the island by any of the three great races of men found in it, it would be difficult to offer a conjecture by which race they were introduced. Had the cattle of Britain been generally white in Caesar's time, it is probable that that great man would have noticed the fact.
