3 Illustrations of solid-wheeled carts still in use have been published in ANTIQUITY, 1929, in, 340-1 (Sardinia and Spain), and 1931, v, 197-9 (India). Carts with solid wheels of precisely the same type as the Spanish ones were still used in England in the 18th century. Pococke saw them at Penrith in Cumberland in 1760 and thus described them: ‘The wheels and Axel trees of their carts turn together, and the wheel consists of three pieces of wood; a small segment of a circle being cut out of the two side pieces and a little from the middle piece ’ (Tours in Scotland, by Richard Pococke, Scottish History Society, 1887, vol. I, 36). A solid wheel of this type found in Tindbaek Mose, Denmark, is illustrated in Bronsted's Danmarks Oldtid, 1938, fig. 93.-EDITOR.
