The West Yorkshire Chariot Burial

more on the Chariot with magnificant images (and I mean magnificant!!!).

 

The chariot had been placed in a large oval pit in the centre of a square ditched enclosure. The burial pit would originally have been covered by a low earth mound formed from the spoil dug out of the surrounding enclosure ditch. As this had been dug into limestone, the mound would have been clearly visible from a distance.
