George! Thank you very much! Your comments have been very helpful!

G.A. wrote: "But it seems clear that the idea of a wheeled throne is older 
than the wheels-and-wings motif. It seems to imply that the one who sits on 
the wheeled throne is one who brings swift change and/or justice to even the 
remotest places. Think of it as a kind of ancient version of Airforce One."

This is accords with a thought recently presented to me and I was seeking a 
bit more detail. This satisfies my curiosity.

Thanks again,
