they are really cool. Life-sized and they were really colourful when they were first made, 2200 years ago.

They were found in 1974. They had been buried in pits, accompanied by clay horses, and chariots made from bronze. No two soldiers are alike. They have different facial expressions, or slightly different uniforms.

Thousands of these immortal warriors were to protect the first emperor of China in the afterlife.
