Brandon-China-Tuning in-13 April 2011

In this day i brought a souvenir from China and it was the terracotta warrior statue's there is many terraccota statue's so it is not just only one , it has different types.
The terraccota were discovered in 1974 by some local farmers in Lintong District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province, near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.
The figures vary in height, according to their roles, with the tallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots, horses, officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits.

  15. Megan, don't be surprised by 6000 soldiers, Indonesia has 500,000 soldiers. Terracotta were defeated when Genghis Khan, Emperor of Mongolia broke into China with 15 000 men. Don't be surprised yet, Russia has nearly 2 million men.......
