The Iron age chariot was unearthed on the outskirts of the maket town of Pocklington at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds. An ancient Briton was also dicovered buried inside his chariot.

Who wouldn't want to be buried in a chariot? Especially if it's your own. Way better than the present four-walled concrete. 

I must say they've got more finesse during the Iron Age.
