Chariot Racing

Thanks to http://eglewis.blogspot.co.nz for the Picture


Chariot racing is one of the most popular event in the ancient greek,roman and Byzantine olympics in olympia. It was important to them. The point of the game is to knock the opposition off their horse. If you were famous your wheels will have spears on their.

There would be a lot of deaths and injuries in those days, imagine it today!!! The Chariot started to end when the Fall of Rome happened. That means that rome took over Greece. It was only Byzantine who survived it. That is how it officially ended
