The term 'Split Like Hooves' is a reference to the physical characteristic of CLOVEN hooves, which are split into two parts. CLOVEN hooves are a common trait among animals such as cows, sheep, goats, and deer. The word CLOVEN is derived from the Old English word 'cleofan, ' which means to split or divide. CLOVEN hooves are an adaptation that helps animals walk on uneven terrain and also helps them to grip the ground for traction.
