Toussaint Louverture, a leader of the Haitian Revolution, was called the "Centaur of the Savannahs" due to his strategic brilliance and military prowess in leading his rebel forces to victory against French colonial rule in Haiti. The term likens him to a mythical creature, combining human intelligence with the power and strength of a horse.

What do you call a cross between a horse and a human?

It is called a centaur. If the upper half is human with the lower half horse and the horse section has all four horse legs, it is indeed a centaur.
