In ancient Greek mythology, not all MONSTERS were terrifying villains. The CENTAURS were creatures with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a HORSE — and most of them were wild, rowdy, and dangerous. But one centaur was completely different from the rest. His name was CHIRON (KY-run), and he was known throughout the mythological world as the wisest and most NOBLE of all the centaurs.
