Описание: The Terracotta Army is regarded as one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century. It is part of the world's largest ancient imperial tomb complex, About 8,000 different life-size statues have been uncovered. It is the largest find of its kind.

The statues are 175–190 cm tall. Every one differs in gestures and facial expressions, some even with color showing.

It was constructed over 2,200 years ago, It was an afterlife army for Emperor Qin. It was believed that objects like statues can be animated in the afterlife. Over 700,000 workers took about 40 years to complete the statues.
Thousands of years later, the soldiers are still standing and showcase an extraordinary level of craftsmanship and artistry from 2,200 years ago.

It was discovered by local farmers. The Terracotta Army remained untouched underground for more than 2,200 years and was discovered by chance by local farmers while digging a well in 1974 in Xi’an. This discovery prompted Chinese archaeologists to investigate, revealing the greatest archaeological site in China.

It's not just soldiers. Since the discovery of the Terracotta Army, more than 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots, and 670 horses have been uncovered. Terracotta musicians, acrobats, and concubines have also been found in recent pits as well as some birds, It is believed that Emperor Qin wanted exactly the same grand services and treatment for his afterlife.
