Samaton (/saa-ma-ton/) or Samadon (/saa-ma-don/) is a mythical winged divine horse in Meitei mythology. He is one of the most recognised creatures in Meitei folklore. Legend says that Samaton is the ancestor of the present day Manipuri pony (Meitei horse). The Leithak Leikharol describes Samaton as a primordial horse associated with Meitei cosmology. It is created by Sanamahi to attack on Pakhangba. Later, it became the mounting creature of God Marjing. It is also called "Shamadon Ayangba" () or "Shamaton Ayangpa" () due to free variation of words in Meitei language (Manipuri language).
