The Indian aurochs (Bos primigenius namadicus) is an extinct subspecies of aurochs that inhabited West Asia and the Indian subcontinent from the Late Pleistocene until its eventual extinction during the South Asian Stone Age. With no remains younger than 3,800 YBP ever recovered, the Indian aurochs was the first of the three aurochs subspecies to become extinct; the Eurasian aurochs (B. p. primigenius) and the North African aurochs (B. p. mauritanicus) persevered longer, with the latter being known to the Roman Empire, and the former surviving until the mid-17th century in Central Europe. The modern zebu breed (B. Indicus) can trace their genetic heritage to the Indian auroch and the modern day sanga breed (B. t. africanus) is partly of Indian auroch origin with additional Taurine cattle genetic influence.
