  It is shown that the compactification a la Randall Sundrum of the so called,
five dimensional Einstein Chern Simons action gravity leads to an action for a
four dimensional scalar tensor gravity that includes a Gauss Bonnet term, which
belongs to a particular case of the action of the Horndeski theory. The five
dimensional action includes new gravitational degrees of freedom that were
introduced requiring that the action be invariant under symmetries greater than
the usual Poincare or (A)dS symmetries, namely the so called generalized
Poincare algebras B5.
