Bronze and iron fittings from a cart or chariot, Late Archaic–Early Classical, ca. 500–480 , Etruscan, Bronze, Other: 9 3/4 × 6 1/8 in. ( × cm), Bronzes, This large collection of bronze fittings, many with their iron or bronze nails still preserved, once belonged to a wheeled wooden cart or chariot. Because all the larger elements have a flat back, we can assume that they came from a vehicle that was basically rectilinear rather than curved like the Monteleone Chariot displayed in this gallery
