Unearth the Secrets of China’s Terracotta Army: Discover the Mysterious Tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huai

LoIn 1974, China dug up an army from underground, surprising the letter itself. The entire army, known today as ‘Terracotta Army’ (Terracotta Army) was made of baked clay, and that too was a sculpture of war-ready soldiers in full human form. All these sculptures were excavated from Shaanxi province. Archaeologists have discovered a large network of such soldiers. These artifacts are believed to have been made during the reign of Qin Shi Huai, the first emperor of China who ruled from 221 BC to 210 BC. Today these terracotta soldiers are considered one of the most famous artifacts in the world.

A vast army of 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses, and 150 cavalry were found in the field. However, archaeologists have not yet been able to excavate Qin Shi Huai’s tomb, despite an extensive army excavation. Therefore, the secrets of the tomb of the first Chinese emperor, who was buried 2000 years ago, remain unknown to this day. The main reason for not opening the tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huai was out of concern that such a move would damage the site. Archaeologists believe this could lead to the loss of valuable historical information about China’s first emperor.

‘There were no military sculptures on the great mound where the emperor was buried. This may be due to respect for elders. But even today, we don’t have the technology to dig into the mound and excavate the emperor’s tomb,’ says archaeologist Christine Romy, who works as a curatorial consultant for the Terracotta Warrior exhibition. Considered the most luxurious burial site ever built in China, the mausoleum complex resembles a planned city. Archaeologists have already unearthed nearly 2,000 clay soldiers from the terracotta army guarding the tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huai. But archaeologists estimate that more than 8,000 military statues are yet to be discovered.
