Centaur

Centaurs were creatures that were part-human and part-horse. They had a place in Earth's mythology, although many accounts depicted them as really existing, either on Earth or on other planets.

History

Centaur-like species

The Doctor met several alien species which resembled centaurs. These included the Klim, (COMIC: The Dalek Revenge) Firbolg, (PROSECat's Cradle: Witch Mark) Unon, (COMIC: Weapons of Past Destruction) and Aquabi. (AUDIO: Pest Control)

Cheiron, one of the centaurs escaping from Tír na n-Óg, was burnt to death. Witnesses were told it was an escaped lab experiment. (PROSECat's Cradle: Witch Mark)

Encounters with centaurs

On Caligaris Epsilon Six, the Eleventh Doctor and Amy found a centaur. The Doctor also remarked they were hunted by humans, which led to their extinction. (COMIC: A Fairytale Life)

A centaur was present at the First Auction in Heaven and bid the Moon of Troth on the the Frozen Battle of Cratosi Fields, one of the pricier items on sale. (PROSE: Going Once, Going Twice)

In popular culture
