The Carceres
From the starting gates (carceres), chariots dashed counterclockwise on a seven-lap race whose finishing line was situated in front of the officials' tribune. The sharp curve at the turning posts (meta prima and meta secunda), at each end of the track, posed a major challenge for the charioteers.HM Number | HM2IKZ |
