Original text on this topic:
Occasionally, a curious triple-horned variety has been found, one such is described by Flower (op.c.) from near Mount Kilima-njaro in East Africa, in which the third horn forms an unsymmetrical triangular elevation about 5 ? inches high in the median line of the lower part of the forehead.
