Det är möjligt att Hagrid låter det glida när man pratar med dem.

Vi vet att Hagrid går in i Förbjudna Skogen och ibland pratar med centaurerna. Vi vet också att Hagrid hade svårt att hålla information om Philosopher's Stone en hemlighet.

“Oh, a fair few … Keep themselves to themselves mostly, but they’re good enough about turnin’ up if ever I want a word. They’re deep, mind, centaurs … they know things … jus’ don’ let on much.”
- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 15 (The Forbidden Forest)

Det verkar som möjligt att Hagrid kunde ha berättat för dem att filosofens sten var i Hogwarts. Han gav av misstag Harry tillräckligt med information för att räkna ut det, och Harry var en oerfaren elva år gammal som just hade lärt sig om trollkarlen.

Det verkar osannolikt att de delade det - centaur spådom är bred.

Medan det är möjligt att centaurerna dividerade filosofens sten i Hogwarts, från vad vi vet om centaurs spådom, tenderar det att vara bredare och inte riktigt fokuserad på detaljer.

“Sybill Trelawney may have Seen, I do not know,’ continued Firenze, and Harry heard the swishing of his tail again as he walked up and down before them, ‘but she wastes her time, in the main, on the self-flattering nonsense humans call fortune-telling. I, however, am here to explain the wisdom of centaurs, which is impersonal and impartial. We watch the skies for the great tides of evil or change that are sometimes marked there. It may take ten years to be sure of what we are seeing.”
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 27 (The Centaur and the Sneak)

Från detta verkar det som om de inte skulle få den nivån av detaljer från stjärnorna. Det verkar också som att dividera saker kan ta tid, så de skulle nog inte få reda på vad som händer när det händer. När vi hör en av Florens förutsägelser är den väldigt bred och ger inte specifika detaljer om någonting.

“In the past decade, the indications have been that wizardkind is living through nothing more than a brief calm between two wars. Mars, bringer of battle, shines brightly above us, suggesting that the fight must soon break out again. How soon, centaurs may attempt to divine by the burning of certain herbs and leaves, by the observation of fume and flame …”
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 27 (The Centaur and the Sneak)

Ron beskrev lektionen som ingenting mycket definitiv, och lågt på detaljer.

“He’s not very definite on anything, is he?’ said Ron in a low voice, as they put out their mallowsweet fire. ‘I mean, I could do with a few more details about this war we’re about to have, couldn’t you?”
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 27 (The Centaur and the Sneak)

Det verkar inte som att de skulle kunna divisera närvaron av Philosopher's Stone.

Vad Florence säger i Harry Potter och Phoenix-ordningen indikerar att centaurerna mestadels bara får det breda sopet av saker:

‘I know that you have learned the names of the planets and their moons in Astronomy,' said Firenze’s calm voice, ‘and that you have mapped the stars' progress through the heavens. Centaurs have unravelled the mysteries of these movements over centuries. Our findings teach us that the future may be glimpsed in the sky above us –'

‘Professor Trelawney did astrology with us!' said Parvati excitedly, raising her hand in front of her so that it stuck up in the air as she lay on her back. ‘Mars causes accidents and burns and things like that, and when it makes an angle to Saturn, like now –' she drew a right-angle in the air above her ‘– that means people need to be extra careful when handling hot things –'

‘That,' said Firenze calmly, ‘is human nonsense.'

Parvati’s hand fell limply to her side.

‘Trivial hurts, tiny human accidents,' said Firenze, as his hooves thudded over the mossy floor. ‘These are of no more significance than the scurryings of ants to the wide universe, and are unaffected by planetary movements.'

‘Professor Trelawney –' began Parvati, in a hurt and indignant voice.

‘– is a human,' said Firenze simply. ‘And is therefore blinkered and fettered by the limitations of your kind.'

Harry turned his head very slightly to look at Parvati. She looked very offended, as did several of the people surrounding her.

‘Sybill Trelawney may have Seen, I do not know,' continued Firenze, and Harry heard the swishing of his tail again as he walked up and down before them, ‘but she wastes her time, in the main, on the self-flattering nonsense humans call fortune-telling. I, however, am here to explain the wisdom of centaurs, which is impersonal and impartial. We watch the skies for the great tides of evil or change that are sometimes marked there. It may take ten years to be sure of what we are seeing.'

Firenze pointed to the red star directly above Harry.

‘In the past decade, the indications have been that wizardkind is living through nothing more than a brief calm between two wars. Mars, bringer of battle, shines brightly above us, suggesting that the fight must soon break out again. How soon, centaurs may attempt to divine by the burning of certain herbs and leaves, by the observation of fume and flame.'

Men han gav inte en kvantitativ bild av hur viktigt det är att en viss information måste vara så att centaurerna kan skönja det, med tanke på en tillräcklig tid. Som det sista citerade stycket indikerar, även om de himmelska kropparnas rörelser inte ger tillräckligt detaljerad information, finns det andra former av spådom som kan användas för att få mer fördjupad kunskap.

Så det verkar helt trovärdigt att centaurerna kunde ha lärt sig om gömstaden för filosofens sten från spådomsmagi.
