The chariot that evolved from the ancient vehicle of this name (see Chariot) took on two main forms: * A light, four-wheeled, horse-drawn carriage having a coach box and back seats only, popular in the early 19th century. * A vehicle for conveying persons especially in state, such as a triumphal car or a coach of state. This stately but manoeuvrable horse carriage was used for ceremonial occasions or for pleasure. A chariotee was a light, covered, four-wheeled pleasure carriage with two seats. A vehicle such as a cart or wagon for transporting goods was also sometimes called a chariot.
