I know this is a bit too modern for Anchorman but still fascinating https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2021/2/27/archeologists-unearth-intact-roman-chariot-near-pompeii?__twitter_impression=true
REmarkable find. Bits of racing and fighting chariots of the period have turned up all over the place - including the North of England - but a ceremonial chariot's a rarity.
