No one held the reins, and no one rode in the chariot; the vehicle was escorted as if the sun god himself were the charioteer. Heliogabalus ran backward in front of the chariot, facing the god and holding the horses&#039; reins. He made the whole journey in this reverse fashion, looking up into the face of his god.&quot; </p><p>Quoted from </p><p><a href="https://www.livius.org/sources/content/herodian-s-roman-history/herodian-5.6/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.livius.org/sources/content/herodian-s-roman-history/herodian-5.6/" rel="nofollow">https://www.livius.org/sources/content/herodian-s-roman-history/herodian-5.6/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
