Best Answer

A Roman chariot is way of transport for the Romans, mostly the rich.

They were also used in gladiator arenas and some Roman wars.

Chariots consisted of a small semi-circle cart that were drawn by two reigned horses.

However, chariots were NOT a Roman invention. The idea was first used by the Hittites in the 17th century BC. The chariots were then adopted by Persia and found their way to Egypt.

When the Romans invaded Egypt, they discovered the usefulness of chariots and stole the idea for themselves.
