If a queen, a king, a knight, a bishop, and a pawn are people, what is a rook?

In India, we hve different names for these pieces

Pawn = Pawn/Soldier

Knight = Horse

Bishop = Camel

Queen = Minister/Secretary (Wazir)

Rook = Elephant

I read  "the Queen's Gambit" years ago, and I seem to remember Beth saying she thought Rooks were like cannons, firing into the opposition's position from afar.
