Best Answer

Centaurs purposes were just to be magical creatures that are half horse half man. Chiron was a very wise centaur,unlike others who would always drink to much wine and have parties. Chiron taught many heroes such as Hercules and i think Perseus. But in conclusion centaurs were just creatures with fantastic Archery skills.
