Chariot Racing in Ancient Rome
One of the things Ancient Rome is probably most famous for is their many forms of entertainment. One of the most popular forms of entertainment amongst people living in Rome was chariot racing. ... There were four chariot-racing companies known as factions, and each one owned the horses, the chariots, the stables, other equipment, and usually the drivers since they were most often slaves.
According to an account from Sidonius Apollinaris, every chariot race began with the sound of a trumpet, and then the chariots were off.
