Chariot
The original chariot was a two-wheeled conveyance usually drawn by two horses. In ancient Rome and other ancient Mediterranean countries a biga was a two-horse chariot, a triga utilized three horses and a quadriga was drawn by four horses abreast. The word "chariot" comes from Latin carrus, car. The chariot was used for ancient warfare during the Bronze and Iron Ages, and continued to be used for travelprocessions and in games and races after it had been superseded militarily.
