In 1974, farmers digging for water in northern China unearthed the head of a clay soldier buried for over 2,200 years. Today, after almost thirty years of work, archaeologists are still uncovering an estimated 7,500 terracotta soldiers, buried near the newly discovered tomb of the first emperor of China. Historians and archaeologists are slowly piecing together the story of this forgotten army and the remarkable emperor who ordered its creation, believing the soldiers would protect him for all eternity. Author’s note.
