Chariots, the first mobile fighting vehicle, seem to have
originated in Mesopotamia in the third millennium BC. The highly
mobile two-wheeled war chariot, carrying a driver and an archer
armed with a short composite bow, revolutionized military tactics
after 1700 BC. This expensive weapon spread throughout the Middle
East and is thought to have reached Egypt with the conquering
Hyksos. It spread into Asia Minor, Greece, and was known in
Northern Europe by 1500 BC. This book covers the evolution of the
war chariot throughout the Bronze Age, detailing its design,
development and combat history - in particular its fundamental
involvement at the battle of Qadesh.
