1. Title: "Celtic Chariot and Charioteer: A Symbol of Power and Warfare in Iron Age Britain" This evocative reconstruction drawing by Chris Evans of Historic England's English Heritage Graphics Team transports us back to the Iron Age in Britain, where the Celts ruled the land. The central focus of the image is a horse-drawn Celtic chariot, meticulously detailed with intricate patterns and ornate decorations. The chariot, designated as J950023, is adorned with a distinctive shield, bearing the distinctive markings of the Celtic tribes. The charioteer, dressed in armor and holding the reins, sits confidently atop the chariot, his steely gaze fixed on the battlefield ahead. His attire, complete with a helmet and protective clothing, underscores the militaristic nature of the scene. The animals, two powerful horses, are poised and ready, their muscles taut with energy, reflecting the raw power and strength required to propel the chariot forward in the heat of battle. The shield, an essential component of the charioteer's armor, is a testament to the defensive capabilities of the Celts. The intricate designs etched onto the shield, which may represent tribal symbols or protective motifs, serve as a visual reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Iron Age. The animals, the chariot, and the charioteer all combine to create a powerful and evocative image, capturing the essence of the Celtic warrior spirit. This drawing offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a fascinating insight into the lives of the Celts and their use of chariots as symbols of power and warfare during the Iron Age in Britain.
