Neat set - what an interesting history.
And that was just a thumbnail sketch, Steve. I suspect the story will evolve as they uncover more of the statues. The Chinese have a wonderful respect for their heritage these days...as opposed to the wanton destruction of the Cultural Revolution.

How did they do that WOW....wonderful images.
Marty - here is an interesting article answering part of your question: https://www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/shaanxi/xian/terra_cotta_army/sculpture.htm
Another aspect was the production of the weapons that the rebels eventually looted.
Thanks for looking.

I had seen you were in Florida, Sylvia. Looks like you are enjoying mighty nice weather there (maybe too humid?)
We highly recommend a China trip. It was a real eye-opener.

What I saw there in 1988 was amazing, but what your photos show they have done since, and are still doing, is right down mind-boggling. Thank You for "taking me back." Luen
