Why isn't the Chariot on the chess board in Indian terminology?
War chariots goes back to the Mahabharata.
It's in Chinese chess.
車
2 wheels, an axle, and a box.
Chariot.
It's in the Charlemagne chess set.
Come on, guy from India, born in India, grew up in India.
Explain it to me.
Why the Chariot is not a piece on the chess board in Indian terminology?
Just cuz you know a word called 'Mahabharata' doesn't mean its a time line, it was an epic, and i don't think you even know what an epic is as you just seem to know chinese chess, and chariots existed way before the writing of Mahabharata.
All thanks to Indians, chess was created.
Here in India, we call horses as horses and not knights, and we call the rooks as elephants, and we call the bishop as a minister or a camel.
Again, because you are stupid.
Here is why you are stupid.
The ancient Indians fought with: infantry, cavalry, chariots, and elephants.

You using the word "camel" you give credence to their theory.
The Chinese call their pieces.
車, 馬, 象
Those are glyphs of Chariot, Horse, Elephant.
They call their chess
象棋
Elephant Game.
Ganesh is an Elephant.
Why don't you wipe the word "camel" out of your vocabulary, and start saying
Chariot, Elephant
to remind people that Chess came from India.
Stop saying camel, you i d i o t.
I know better than you. The Chinese know better than you.
