a tumbril (French tombereau). These were high-sided, two-wheeled farm carts. For some years prior to the revolution, a large number of such carts had been used in the clearance of the Holy innocents' cemetery, carrying exhumed skeletons from the centre of Paris to the catacombs (abandoned underground stone quarries) near the Porte d'Enfer (now Place Denfert-Rochereau). They came in handy for taking prisoners from the Conciergerie prison to Place de la Révolution (now Place de la Concorde) for execution.
