¡µThe chariot pit was used for the accessory burial of Guo Ji(M2001) . The plane of the tomb is rectangular . It measures 47.6 meters long from south to north , 3.7-4.16 meters wide from east to west , and 1.1-1.4 meters deep . At present , the chariot pit is the largest one discovered in the Guo State's tombs . In addition to the chariots and horses destroyed by the modern tombs and ditches located above them , there remained in the pit 13 chariots , 64 horses and 6 dogs . The chariots were placed in the northern area of the pit and there were two horses lying under each chariot . Most of the horses were placed in the southern area . All the chariots were placed in order : the horses' heads faced the north while the bodies of the chariots towards the south . The chariots , wooden in quality and painted in black lacquer on the surface , belonged to the warring chariots . The horses were buried after being killed or poisoned . The burial dogs are probably the earliest substantial evidence for using dogs in the army¡C
