The three turning posts at each end of the central dividing wall (spina) were called "metae". The narrow turn at the metae on the east end was particularly dangerous. It was also named the "taraxippus" which translates as "horse-terror" or "horse-disturber". (sing.- meta) See Circus Maximus for verification.
