Hippodonti is a Greek term meaning "horse tooth." It was first used by Aristotle in his works on animal anatomy. The term is used to refer to the type of tooth found in horses, which have four large, pointed central incisors on the upper and lower jaws. These teeth are used for grazing and for grinding the grass and other plant matter that horses eat. The two middle incisors are also known as "tushes," while the outside ones are called "cuspids." Hippodonti is also used to refer to the teeth of many other animals, including camels, cattle, goats, and sheep.

Hippodonti is a term used to refer to a type of ancient Greek pottery, which is easily identifiable by its intricate, curvilinear designs. Hippodonti pottery, believed to have originated in the 8th century BCE, is characterized by its distinctive black and red geometric patterns, and is often decorated with figures of gods, animals, and mythical creatures. It was typically used for both everyday and ritual purposes, and is sometimes found in tombs alongside other burial gifts. Hippodonti pottery is highly prized today, and is often featured in exhibitions and collections of ancient art.

Hippodonti is a Latin word derived from the Greek word hippodontos, which means "horse-toothed". This term was coined by Aristotle to describe a specific type of horse with large, protruding teeth. In modern usage, the term has come to refer to any type of horse with large, prominent teeth, and is often used as a synonym for “stallion”. Some horse breeds, such as the American Quarter Horse, are known as being hippodonti.
