HIPPOCENTAU'ROS (ἱπποκένταυρος). A horse-centaur, half-horse and half-man (Cic. N. D. ii. 2.), as opposed to the fish-centaur, half-man and half-fish (ἰχθυοκένταυρος), under which form the giants who waged war against the gods, were represented (Apollodor. i. 6. 1. Mus. Pio-Clem. iv. tav. 10.) Hippocentaurs were also represented of the female sex (Luc. Zeux. 3.), of which an example is afforded by the illustration (Hippocentauros/1.1) from a bronze discovered at Pompeii.
