A thunderbox is a type of portable toilet. Here's a breakdown of its key features and uses:

• Basic Design: It's typically a box-like structure, often made of wood, with a seat and a hole to sit over.
• Portable: Thunderboxes are designed to be moved, making them suitable for locations without permanent facilities.
• Self-Contained: They don't usually connect to existing infrastructure like sewers.
• Placement: They can be positioned over a hole dug in the ground.
• Usage: They are commonly found in situations like:
• Camping, especially in backcountry areas.
• Construction sites
• Large outdoor events and film locations
• Urban slums in developing countries

Historically, they were a simple wooden commode containing a chamber pot. The term "thunderbox" is now considered dated or historic slang. It was notably used in British India.
