Lew,
Thanks for sharing the pictures.

How did they unearth an entire chariot? Was it dug in and stored underground as some kind of offering too?

I am not too sure but I think this was unearthed back in the early part of the 20th century I think by a farmer? I will do some research and get back to you soon.

What a feast. I just do not understand why the East African warriors with thier huge spears are not seen in the same light as classical warriors. My kind of day out with a beer or two.

Nice job with the pics Lew. Photographing piece on exhibition is alway a difficult thing to do and these look pretty good.
