Simple vehicles drawn by a single or a pair of bullocks, horses and rams are in evidence. Others are covered wagons while quite a few represent chariot models. The coverings consisted of materials such as a framework of light bamboo or leather cover. Two types are distinguishable: independent frames of carts and wagons and models prepared from moulds representing details in front. - [Previous: v1.c21.s17.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c21.s17.2) - [Next: v1.c21.s17.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c21.s17.4) - [Up: v1.c21.s17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c21.s17) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c21.s17.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c21.s17.3) · Pramāṇa
