Officials at the Pompeii archaeological site in Italy have announced the discovery of an intact ceremonial chariot, one of several important discoveries made outside the park following an investigation into an illegal dig.

A view of a chariot, with its iron elements, bronze decorations and mineralized wooden remains, that was found in Civita Giuliana, north of Pompeii. Officials at the Pompeii archaeological site near Naples on Saturday, Feb. 27, 2021, announced the first-ever discovery of an intact ceremonial chariot, one of several important discoveries made in the same area outside the park following an investigation into an illegal dig.

The Archaeological Park of Pompeii called the chariot “an exceptional discovery” and said"it represents a unique find - which has no parallel inThe eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD destroyed Pompeii. The chariot was spared when the walls and roof of the structure it was in collapsed, and also survived looting by modern-day antiquities thieves, who had dug tunnels through to the site, grazing but not damaging the four-wheeled cart, according to park officials.

Archaeologists last year found in the same area on the outskirts of Pompeii, Civita Giulian, the skeletal remains of what are believed to have been a wealthy man and his male slave, attempting to escape death.

Another amazing beautiful discovery.

Need your help covering this story! My friends life depends on it please cover his trial this month in San Bernardino!!! Please contact me for more info. Mark geragos and Alexandra Kazarian is defending him! Please help save a life and bring light to injustice

Please fix your statement ABC. A chariot is a 2 wheeled conveyance where the occupants stand while moving. A carriage has 4 wheels and the occupants are seated. The terms are not interchangeable.

Are you sure? My dictionary says chariots have 2 wheels. Oh wait, my dictionary is the 79AD edition! Sorry, my bad!!

Wow...a chariot. And to think I belong to an era of smartphones and tech.

Great

How cool is that!
