TRIGA. A three-horsed car, and a team of three horses yoked abreast (Isidor. Orig. xviii. 26. Ulp. Dig. 21. 1. 38.), two of which drew from the pole, the third being attached as an outrigger by a brace (simplici vinculo. Isidor. Orig. xviii. 35.) to the ropes which passed on each side of the middle horse round the forepart of the car, as shown by the annexed example (Triga/1.1), from an Etruscan vase engraved by Ginzrot.
