Archaeologists found over 100 horse skeletons in Stuttgart, Germany. The skeletons date back to the second century A.D. and may have belonged to a Roman cavalry unit.
The statement, translated from German to English, noted the town was one of the region's "most important Roman military sites" in ancient times. A cavalry unit there boasted around 700 horses at its peak. There have been several ancient Roman grave discoveries in the past year.
