The Roman chariots came in different sizes depending on their use. There was the very light racing chariot, which was barely large enough for the driver and there was also the big ceremonial chariot used for a general's triumph which could easily hold four or more people. In general, the Romans were not big chariot users, except in the above mentioned events and the army never used them.
Roman Chariots had a raised, curved wall on the front, left and right sides with an open back. This wall usually formed a "U" shape when looked at from above. There were two large, spoke wheels on the left and right sides. The chariot driver would stand -rather than sit- in the chariot with his arms over the front of the wall, holding the horse's reins.
