          Paintings and reliefs from tombs help to supply the information 
about harnessing and trappings of the horses and chariots, which cannot 
be deduced from the perished fragments of leather which survive. 
Details of harness are clear in several pictures of horses and chariots, 
and studies have been made from

                                     (Top. Bibl.<,> I<,> p.68<,> plan of (39) Hall (1)
