They came from Rome, and raced around the track of Circus Maximus to glory. They were trained from children and were used as a form of Roman entertainment
In the circus a variety of sporting events took place as well as lavish religious processions but the most popular event that took place at the circus was chariot racing. gambling and betting also took place at the circus with the Romans betting on a faction (team) rather then individual charioteers. each faction would have 2-4 charioteers in each race so gamblers were more likely to win. the circus also contained rest rooms and food outlets where the Romans could enjoy themselves during the breaks. unlike other forms of Roman entertainment the circus wasn't segregated so men and women were allowed to sit together. This meant that flirtation and dalliance happened at the circus.
Ben-Hur is the fictional story of Ben-Hur (Hebrew: יהודה בן חור) or Benhur, a Judean aristocrat who, during the reign of the Roman Emperor Tiberius, is enslaved through the betrayal of his Roman friend Messala. Embittered and vengeful after regaining his freedom, he is redeemed after encountering Jesus and witnessing his crucifixion. Originally a Lew Wallace novel of 1880, the story has been adapted for stage, screen and radio numerous times.
circus is the Roman word for roundabout (in the sense of traffic roundabout).The Circus Maximus was a large oval racetrack between the Palatine and Aventine hills. Chariot Racing was probably the most popular sporting event in Rome through most of the city's history. Charioteers had enormous star status and huge amounts of money changed hands in the betting on every race.
The funerary relief of a circus official is a type of ancient Roman funerary sculpture that commemorates individuals associated with the circus, such as charioteers or other officials involved in the games. These reliefs often depict the deceased in a dynamic pose, surrounded by symbolic elements related to their profession, such as horses, chariots, or racing scenes. They served both as a memorial and a testament to the social status and achievements of the individual, reflecting the importance of entertainment and public spectacles in Roman culture.

A knife to cut themselves free if they fell off
The Roman Charioteer live in Rome; with their family and friends. There was no block of housing set aside for charioteers. However, if a driver were a slave, (very rare, most charioteers were free men) then his owner would provide housing, more than likely near the stables. A free driver could live wherever he wanted as the winning drivers could be quite wealthy.
Roma Charioteers were slaves so they wore basically the same as a household slave would, basically a tunic but it was coloured to determinate who the different racers were who owned the slaves. White, red, green, blue and black wer the most used colours.
