The land of the Centaurs

In history and in art, the Centaurs are shown as having a human torso and the lower body of a horse. The best-known Centaur was Chiron, a wise teacher whose students included Asclepius, Jason and Achilles.

He was the first to use herbs to treat illnesses and injuries. According to myth, Chiron belonged to the famed race of Centaurs descended from the gods and were wise, just, good-hearted, and friends and supporters of humans.
