The Horse-monkey is a mythological beast resembling both a monkey and a horse. The extreme uncommon usage of this beast is partially due to its fictitious roots stemmed from Obar, the great and vicious Ovimbundu god of speed. The Horse-monkey is believed to originate from the 8th century in the Holy Roman Empire, however this is subject to dispute.
