Single Celtic Briton Chariot (Pre-Painted)

This chariot is an Iron Age Celtic Briton Chariot, these were first recorded by Julius Caesar after his 55 BCE invasion of Britain. In his account he stated that;

These chariots were such a shock for Caesar and his men because not only did they make a thunderous din, but chariots had not been used in actual mass battle on continental Europe for centuries. Made of wood and metal they also used a lot of leather. When in earshot of thousands of chariots, the terrible noise they made was probably also due to the creaking strains of woven leather flooring, sprung across the bed of the chariots; thousands of creaking suspended floors along with the din from the iron rimmed wheels (originally a Celtic invention to prolong the life of a wheel) was enough to cause disorder even among the massed ranks of Roman's Legions.
