A relief depicting a carruca, a four-wheeled carriage drawn by two horses. Using a carruca was a rather comfortable way of travelling: the carriage body was suspended on leather straps - a kind of shock absorber. For long journeys carrucae were even provided with beds.  https://twitter.com/DrNWillburger/status/1496403318251438082
