In ancient times, Greeks created tracks for horse racing called Hippodromes. Romans designed tracks based off of the Hippodrome called a Circus, which was slightly narrower and accommodated 4 horses instead of 10. Our modern horse race tracks are usually designed after the Greek Hippodromes so modern tracks may be considered a Hippodrome.
