Definition
An extinct genus of early horse from the Eocene epoch, smaller than modern horses and with multiple toes on each foot.
Etymology
From Greek 'archaios' (ancient) + 'hippos' (horse), literally 'ancient horse,' named by paleontologists to describe early ancestors of modern horses that lived millions of years ago.
Kelly Says
Archaeohippus was tiny—only about the size of a modern dog—yet it's in your horse's direct family tree; studying its fossil bones showing multiple toes helped prove Darwin's theory that horses evolved from multi-toed ancestors!
