centaur

Centaurs are well known creatures that are half man and half horse. A centaur carrying a bow and arrow is called a sagittarius. Both the sagittarius and the centaur are quite common in heraldry, especially on the continent. King Stephen is said to have assumed the symbol of sagittarius because the sun was in that sign when he ascended the throne. The centaur is a symbol of virility and one who has been eminent in the field of battle.
