The chariot was the premier weapon of war in the ancient world for more than 700 years, and was adopted by empires such as the Hittites, Egyptians, and Assyrians.
Chariots were used not only in warfare, but also for sport, particularly hunting and racing. Over time, chariots became associated with the ruling class, and they were decorated with increasing elaboration.
This gallery of 25 images showcases images of chariots and charioteers in art, as well as modern reconstructions of chariots, with examples ranging from modern-day France to China.
