Raulwing outlines the different types of linguistic evidence, with many examples, and a general history of developments and innovations in chariot design and use. He argues that chariots originated in the Near East in the early 2nd millennium BC and that there was no `horse’ or `wheeled transport’ in Proto-Indo-European language.
