Tonight on PBS [check local station] airs a program on Ancient Chinese Chariots.
"For over a thousand years, chariots thundered across China’s battlefields,*dominating warfare far longer than anywhere else on Earth. Now a series of amazing archaeological discoveries, including whole chariots buried with their horses, has enabled a team of experts to probe the genius of China’s first super-weapon. By recreating a*battle chariot, they investigate the design secrets which made them such a long-lived war machine, all while discovering*how they were used, what set them apart from the rest of the world, and their role in the unification of China."
Might be interesting. Set to Record. NOVA usually does a good show.
