The Terracotta Army

Terra Cotta Warrior Two centuries before the birth of Christ, the army formed a beautiful army to protect China's first emperor, Qin Shihuang. His elaborate mausoleum became an emperor in 246 BC and began in the year that lasted 40 years after his death. But why Terracotta Warrior is not a human sacrifice but a 1000 year tradition. In 678 BC the funeral man sacrificed the exercises initiated by the duke, including the murder of the emperor's entire court including his army.

Terra cotta warrior or horse and horse is a series of sculptures and terra cotta warriors depicting the Chinese first emperor, Qin Shihuang army. This is a type of funeral buried by the emperor from 210 BC to 209 BC. These numbers dates back to the second half of the 3rd century BC and was discovered by local farmers in Linyi District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province in 1974. These numbers vary by role, but the highest is general. These numbers include warriors, tanks and horses. In the current estimate, there are over 8,000 soldiers, 130 tanks, 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses among the three pits including terrorista fighters. Other terrorist cavalry warriors and non-military persons were also found at other repair stations such as officials, acrobats, strongers, musicians.

In 1974, Chinese workers dug a well and made an amazing discovery: thousands of life-sized clay warriors with honorable lives and horses are preparing to go to war. These people, now known as Terracotta Warriors or Terracotta Warriors, are located in three holes near Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China. After discovering a soldier, it became a world heritage of the museum and UNESCO in 1987. These ruins are located one mile northeast of the pyramid-shaped mausoleum built for the first Chinese emperor (259 BC - 210 BC). According to the UNESCO World Heritage Center, archaeologists doubt that the excavated tomb may contain the whole Xian replica protected by soldiers. Three pits (the fourth pit is incomplete) contains an estimated 8000 actual size terracotta figures, of which about 2,000 were excavated.

Finally, it was time to see China's first emperor, Emperor Qin Shihuang. The tomb of the unopened Emperor is not far from the hole of Lishan Terracotta Warriors, but this is not something the tourist can see. In Xi'an District, our tour will not pass through anything closer to them, but you can see similar tombs. The famous army now was found when local farmers dug up water in 1974. When the troops were discovered, the soldiers were in ruins and had to be reassembled one by one. The roof of these characters is believed to be made with hibiscus and reed first. There is evidence that the roof collapsed due to a fire and the numbers in the 1st pit and the 2nd pit collapsed.
