Centaur Sterling Silver Charms

INFOFACTS - Centaurs, in Greek Mythology, a race of monsters believed to have inhabited the mountain regions of Thessaly and Arcadia. They were usually represented as having human form from head to waist, with the lower torso and legs of a horse. The centaurs were characterized by savageness and violence; they were known for their drunkenness and lust and were often portrayed as followers of Dionysus, the god of wine. The centaurs were driven from Thessaly when, in a drunken frenzy, they attempted to abduct the bride of the king of the Lapiths from her wedding feast. An exception to these bestial creatures was the centaur Chiron, who was noted for his goodness and wisdom. Several Greek heroes, including Achilles and Jason, were educated by him.
