    On March 29, 1974, the first terracotta warriors and horses were found in Xiyang Village, Yanzhai Township, Lintong County, Shaanxi Province.

    The State Administration of Cultural Heritage appointed Shaanxi Province to organize the archaeological team of the Qin Warriors Pit of the First Emperor's Mausoleum to carry out archaeological excavations on the terracotta warriors and horses, and successively discovered four large terracotta warriors and horses, and obtained more than 8,000 pieces of terracotta figurines, large-scale painted bronze chariots and horses, and tens of thousands of bronze weapons.

    The craftsmen who made the terracotta warriors were a group of potters who were in the lower echelons of the Qin Empire's society. Some of these potters came from the court pottery workshops, and some came from local pottery workshops. There are 80 names of potters found on the figurines, all of whom are excellent potters with rich practical experience.

    Repair of the Terracotta Army:

    From July 1999 to January 1999, a joint archaeological team conducted a trial excavation of the K9801 burial pit. This burial pit is located between the inner and outer city in the southeast of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum, about 200 meters away from the current enclosure of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum. At that time, a large number of stone armor and stone armor were unearthed.

    2. The stone armor pit is also the first time that cultural relics protection and restoration personnel have directly participated in the archaeological excavation related to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin, and Liu Jiangwei is in this archaeological team. He and his companions took pictures and numbered the unearthed armor pieces one by one, and found that most of the stone armor was armor, and there were also "fish scale armor" with exquisite workmanship, which should be worn by senior generals.

    3. Liu Jiangwei said that people who do restoration and protection work must endure loneliness, "We are facing cultural relics that are already very fragile, just like doctors facing seriously ill patients, we must not be sloppy, and any small mistakes in operation are very likely to lead to very large losses."

    4. Boredom is relative, behind every damaged pottery piece and every cultural relic being restored, you can always find something that others can't see, and sometimes it will bring surprises. Liu Jiangwei always finds joy in every restoration work.

    There are eight historical sites in the world, which are very important guarantees for mankind. And as one of the four great civilizations, I have two of the world's relics. One is the Great Wall, and the second is the Qin Terracotta Army.

    They were all born during the reign of Qin Shi Huang, and although the Great Wall took time to undergo constant repairs, it was Qin Shi Huang who advocated the construction of the Great Wall. The Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses are the burial of Qin Shi Huang, and with the continuous deepening of research, a part of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses have been excavated, which has brought us a lot of shock. There are about 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, this 8,000 is just a conservative estimate, we have not opened the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and it is difficult to say the specifics, the biggest feature of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses is that there are thousands of people and thousands of faces, which has brought us a lot of speculation.

    1. There are about more than 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and we can see the original appearance of the terracotta warriors and horses when we go to Xi'an now, and we can see those tunnels, we can feel a kind of majestic and deep. The No. 1 pit of the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, Jin Accompany is their main force, and we can see the military power of the Qin Dynasty at that time there. In the No. 2 pit, we can see a lot of chariots and weapons, and we can see that the terracotta warriors and horses are numerous.

    Pit No. 3 is the headquarters position, and nothing big has been excavated. Judging from what we have excavated so far, the number of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses is very large, and the overall number may exceed 8,000, and the subsequent excavations will go deeper and deeper, and more and more things will be discovered. <>

    Second, the people of the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses have different faces The Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses are made of clay on the surface, because Qin Shi Huang is very demanding, thousands of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, they all have thousands of faces. This surprised us that everyone had a repetitive look, almost nothing, and they all looked different. They may come from different craftsmen and will have different facial features.

    There is also a theory that they are real people, and then burned to death with ceramics, and finally preserved until now, so they have different facial features, and now the defeat of the search is still inconclusive, because after all, no one has damaged the Qin Terracotta Army, which is still a very magical thing. <>

    Qin Shi Huang not only wanted to unify the whole country during his lifetime, but he also wanted to be his monarch of the underworld after his death. He brought a lot of funeral items, and he pursued immortality all his life, so it is very possible to use real people as terracotta warriors and horses to accompany him in the funeral. The huge number of terracotta warriors and horses reflects the great joy of Qin Shi Huang, and also reflects what he wanted to pursue all his life, to be the master of the world forever.

    There are about 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, all of whom look different, and they all guard his underground world for Qin Shi Huang, and have always accompanied Qin Shi Huang to immortality.

    The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor to unify China, was discovered in 1974 and died in 210 BC and is buried in the center of the mausoleum. His mausoleum is surrounded by those famous terracotta figurines. Those terracotta figurines, which are slightly smaller than the human form, are in different shapes, and the imposing is connected with their war horses, chariots and **, becoming a perfect masterpiece of realism, but also retaining a very high historical value.

    Finally, to sum up.

    The Terracotta Warriors and Horses are a kind of funerary object ordered by the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang, whose role is to protect the soul of Qin Shi Huang and secure the mausoleum. At that time, it was believed that once the tomb owner passed away, the soul would be "sent to the immortals" and enter another world. In order to ensure that this process goes smoothly, it is very important to offer funerary goods.

    The terracotta warriors and horses are an important part of this and are considered a measure to prevent the theft of the tomb and protect the safety of the "soul" of Qin Shi Huang. At the same time, the terracotta warriors and horses also expressed the power and military strength of the Qin Dynasty and were a political symbol.
