Chariots collectively; the use of chariots in warfare, racing, or transportation; the practice or art of chariot warfare.
Formed from 'chariot' plus the abstract noun suffix '-ry' (from Old French, meaning practice, craft, or collection), as in 'archery,' 'slavery,' or 'cavalry,' creating a noun for an entire system or activity.
Chariotry was so militarily significant that entire ancient armies were organized around chariot tactics, and the decline of chariotry marked a major turning point in military history when horses became individual cavalry instead of vehicle-based.
