Located outside or beyond the zodiac; relating to regions of the sky outside the traditional zodiacal belt.
From 'ex-' (outside) + 'zodiac' + '-al' (suffix forming adjectives). The zodiac itself comes from Greek 'zoion' (animal) + 'daktylos' (circle), because zodiacal constellations depict animals.
Exzodiacal objects were discovered in our solar system when astronomers realized that not all planetary bodies nicely traveled within the ancient zodiacal band that astrologers had mapped out.
