It is not known when cattle were introduced into the United Kingdom, but documents state that cattle have been a part of the U.K. for thousands of years, especially as part of the ancient wild Aurochs, now extinct, that once roamed the U.K and much of Europe. The Britons, unlike the ancient Romans (and observed by the Romans) chose, because of the climate and topography, to live from the meat and milk of the cattle they raised and allowed to breed through natural selection instead of from crops. Thus from the cattle of the old Britons (and the Celts) came many breeds known in the U.K. such as Sussex, Hereford, Shorthorn, Kerry, Devon, Ayrshire, Galloway, Angus, Highland, and others.
Current evidence from genetic analysis of archeological finds suggest that cattle were first domesticated in the Neolithic age or at least 6,000 years ago. This does not tell us when cattle first arrived to the United Kingdom, only that they were began to be tamed for being used for meat, milk and draft.
