At least 2600 years old, this chariot is attributed to the Etruscan culture of ancient Italy. It is made of bronze inlaid with ivory and features three main repoussé panels depicting what has been identified by scholars as episodes from the life of Achilles, including his arming by Thetis, combat with Memnon, and apotheosis in a chariot drawn by winged horses. Additional details include animal motifs, intricate reliefs, and preserved elements of horse harnesses. It measures 130.9 cm (51 9/16 in)
