How old are Roman chariots?

Archaeologists have found the remains of Roman chariots in many places of the ancient Roman world. They were used primarily for war and for chariot races. The numbers of them that existed during the period of ancient Rome are countless. But how old are they? Well Etruscan tombs contained chariots if the dead person was wealthy. These Etruscan tombs existed before Rome became a power in Italy. The commonly referred to date of the beginning of Rome is 753 BC BCE. It would not be a stretch of the imagination then to answer the question of the age of Roman chariots from that date to 2013. This then is roughly 2700 years. Whether the "digs" done by Archaeologists have discovered Roman made chariots before or after that date is uncertain.
