Etymology
Charioteer comes from chariot, a small two-wheeled cart used in war or in races, plus the ending -eer, which means 'a person who does something'. So a charioteer is literally someone who 'drives' a chariot, like a modern car driver, which explains why it means a person who drives a chariot in ancient times or races.
