None

[Michael Witzel]

Chariots drawn by antelopes are as old as the Rgveda, and typical for  
the chariots of the storm gods, the Marut.
See for example RV I 85.4. In the new RV translation of Witzel, Goto  
et al. (Verlag d. Weltreligionen, 2007):

4. Die guten Kämpfer, die mit den Speeren hell funkeln, (fahren),
während sie sogar unbewegliche Dinge mit Körperkraft fortbewegen,
wenn ihr, Maruts, die gedankenschnellen Antilopen an eure Streitwagen
geschirrt habt, (ihr) die Stiere als (eure) Truppe habt.

Can supply more exx. if needed.

Cheers,
MW
