Complete chariot burial found in Yorkshire

The skeletons of two complete horses and the complete preservation of a chariot are a remarkable Iron Age find in the town of Pocklington in Yorkshire this month. I hope when the finds get removed and eventually displayed in a museum they can preserve the way in which they were found from the excavation photographs. Have seen some great chariots from the Picenum culture of a similar date in Ancona, Italy for a comparison.
