Liked this article. I've added a bit and also copy-edited it a little for international readers, who don't have the "ox-wagon=voortrekker" reflex, and will be expecting the article to be primarily about ox-wagons. Hope that's OK - of course change it if you're not happy, :-) JackyR 14:07, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wagons, carts, oxen, bullocks etc

[edit]

Please see discussion at Talk:Bullock cart#Carts and wagons. Richard New Forest (talk) 10:55, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Standard Gauge

[edit]

There are numerous references to the distance between the wheels of chariots and ox-carts having an influence of the Standard Gauge for railways. Tabletop (talk) 10:13, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speed

[edit]

How fast can one travel in an ox wagon? --Taejo|대조 15:48, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Bullock cart

[edit]

The concept is the same, most of the pictures at bullock cart look identical to what is considered an ox wagon. Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 10:39, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A merger will also consolidate the links to other languages in one place — for example the German article linked to Bullock cart mentions the voortrekkers, which is in fact a reference to the ox wagon. Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 10:46, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An Ox wagon isn't at all the same concept as a Bullock cart - the former was heavy transport with 4 wheels and up to 20 oxen commonly used (and occasionally more). Michaelandsandy (talk) 06:39, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Closing, given the opposition uncontested in more than 6 months. Klbrain (talk) 22:56, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Relacione with ideals of Racial Superiority of white Europeans Race, racial whitening.

[edit]

The use of Ox-wagon was happened in times that happpened during 1400s to late 20th Century, that is very related with politics made based in White Supremacy thinks and notions and cited in Anthem of the South Africa’s Apartheid Government and also used to Whitening racially interior lands located outside Europe and mass killing non-whites.
