I wonder if there was a United Chariot Workers contract covering the guys who built those.

The original junk yard is discovered!

Q: when was the first chariot race held?

A: about ten minutes after the second chariot was built!

Archaeologists have unearthed a well-preserved 1,800-year-old bronze chariot at an ancient Thracian tomb in southeastern Bulgaria, the head of the excavation said Friday. Along with the chariot, which was decorated with scenes from mythology, the team unearthed well-preserved wooden and leather objects, some of which the archaeologists believe were horse harnesses.</P></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc;
