Sabine Chariot Rewrites History


Recommended Posts

An ancient king's war chariot found in a tomb near Rome has helped rewrite the history of the Romans and their Sabine rivals. "This chariot is an exceptional find," said archaeologist Paola Santoro .

 

"It shows that the city of Ereteum remained independent long after the Sixth Century BC." "In other Sabine cities like Custumerium, conquered by the Romans, the custom of putting regal objects in king's tombs had died out by that time".
