HALLS 40 AND 55. 
D. LAND VEHICLES. 
In Halls 40 and 55 are installed a number of vehicles from 
widely separated portions of the earth. The most interesting are the 
dog-sleds of Arctic America, and those of sub-tropic Madeira; the 
Etruscan racing chariot, which is interesting in that it differs typi- 
cally from both the Assyrian and Egyptian chariots in the number of 
its spokes. The rolling hogshead is a relic of Colonial days, and the 
Mexican cart with solid wheels without spokes, illustrates the 
introduction of the wheel vehicle in civilization. The decora- 
tions of the Sicilian cart are of a religious nature, as might 
be supposed. The Volante, a Cuban carriage for two persons, is 
generally drawn by two horses hitched tandem, the leading 
horse being almost in front and a little to the left of the wheel 
horse. Examples of hubs, spokes, and bent-wood used in modern 
carriage and wagon making are shown, as is also a series of models 
very fully illustrating Hindoo and Burmese wagons and carriages, 
and Ceylon carts.
