Terra-cotta Warriors









Horses used to pull chariots made it, but the wooden carts they pulled were burned during the rebellion or rotted away over 2000 years.



China, cooperating with German archaeologists say the next batch of warriors to be restored will retain their original colors!







Not one warrior made it through intact! During a peasant rebellion the tombs where rushed and everything was smashed. Each and everyone you see, has been repaired from bits and pieces.
