Mysteries of the Terracotta Warriors | Official Trailer | Netflix

[@briefcasedude1842]

Netflix should make more of history related documentaries like this one.

You mean like their Cleopetra documentary where they rewrote history just for DEI points? I rather they stay away from making documentaries.

We went to that museum this April. It was really breathtaking!! That place is huge and some of them still with some colors. But I have to admit. It is better to know the history of the dynasty before you go as it would give you a different experience. Well worth the trip.

I went there last year! At first I thought it will be a normal visit to a historical but I was speechless when I arrived, the details, the mystery, and the enormity of the place left me wondering. Shortly after leaving the museum I started doing a lot of research about it. Thank you for this documentary it helped me clarify many things about this mystery place!

[@lynnwang4151]

One amazing scene i saw from another documentary: one day the archaeologist saw a finger print on terra-cotta’s upper lip under the sunshine, he told to the reporter with tears. At that moment he feels that he has connected with the craftsman who made the terracotta 2000 years ago. Such a moving moment.

[@sachhalmufti3120]

I visited the place this Febuary. What an amazing sight. The Warriors are sculpted with such intricate details.

[@Oppps88]

Just finished it, amazing documentary, way better than any of the recent ones which came out. Still hoping they will try opening up the tomb and finding Qin Shi Huang's resting place someday.

[@tedwang906]

I hope it will never be opened,in Chinese culture the biggest offense to someone is to dig up his tombs.

[@andrewheng5176]

If you understand Chinese culture it's not difficult to understand the line of thought behind this burial (granted the scale is still magnificent). Chinese believe in blessing material goods into the afterlife, even now there are still customs of burning paper made replicas of homes, cars, tv appliances, etc for the deceased. So this is a very natural extension of that practice, albeit at a much higher level of opulence. Also fun fact, the neighboring farmers actually dug out a lot of bricks and clay to build homes (unknowingly of course)because it was so easily accessible and at such high quality lol

[@allenikechanne]

yes, and the tomb of the Qin emperor has actually not been excavated yet. due to the limitation of current technology, the ancient relics will lose their color and oxidize in the air. So the government has decided to leave the entire tomb unexcavated until better technology is available. Qin has a entire mountain built above his grave, built with compacted soil and covered with vegetation. Allegedly his grave is filled with mercury that circulates like rivers and oceans and their positions are the exact match to the territory of China at that time. there is a tale that says his coffin is a floating boat in the mercury so that he can inspect his land, with all the treasures you can imagine with him. With all those tales and mysteries all we can do is wait and imagine. Ten years ago they actually find high mercury level in the soil so that tale might be partially correct.

[@vikassinghbungla]

The culture has degraded alot now... now the ppl living there along with the govt is pathetic.

[@CoockiexAngel]

@@vikassinghbunglawhy would you say the culture has degraded. It is dynamic and is subject to the changing times. I would not like growing up surrounded by even more superstitious beliefs than we already have now. Current Chinese, within China or overseas enjoy and feel pride in the best parts of the culture, mainly in regards to arts and cuisine, therefore these aspects are also the most lively. Because a governmental entity once suppressed it within some borders, does not mean that the culture isn’t kept alive either among the average Chinese civilian or elsewhere.

[@mandy11254]

@@vikassinghbungla The culture is fine. The govt is not. Big difference. Their govt became an existence that is extremely difficult to support and have a favorable opinion of if you're not Chinese. But even then, it's wrong to say the culture degraded. Also, there's a lot of narrow-minded people there as a result of the type of regime they live in, but at the same time, there are equally as many intelligent people who can determine for themselves what the truth is.

[@MarkMiller304]

⁠@@vikassinghbunglathe current government is just one of many that have ruled over China. There are many before it and will be many after. Each new dynasty has left its mark on the culture, that’s just the nature of history. What matters the most is the current government is making China into a great power again that will compete with and beat the west. That is the crux of the problem that the west has. It’s not that they care about Chinese people, it’s that they are afraid of being beaten by them. You’re Indian I presume, this inferiority complex goes even deeper for Indians, because believe they should be in China’s position. But they are not, they are in fact inferior in every way.

[@lucysu3875]

Was there last week. Something like this needs to be seen in person with your own eyes. It’s incredible! The line getting in was super long even though it was not during the busy periods. But once you’re in there, the waiting becomes well worth it!

[@Bhumika_222]

I like the fact how the Emperor Qin has so many purposes about this Army in his mind like as a representation of Military Organization, symbol of power and prestige, A Belief in the Afterlife or a Funerary Art. The significance in cultural and historical views is notable all the time.

Thank goodness for the local authorities in Sha'anxi who when discovering this priceless legacy of human achievement during the later stage of the Cultural Revolution chose to preserve the terracotta army and all the other artifacts. Chinese during the Cultural Revolution were told to destroy the 'Four Olds' (四旧) 'old ideas', 'old culture', 'old customs', and 'old habits'

[@Luiri61]

如果在大革命后期还能保留下来这么典型的“旧”， 是不是代表了这个运动本身就不是一个严谨的打倒运动，反而更像是一种行为归附，因为目前国内还有很多珍贵文物在流转和拍卖。很难想象为什么在西方的视野中，他们都要刻意去描述毛泽东时代的过错，极力的描述成一个共产党的反面例子，但是西方从来不去深究西方自己存在的类似问题，抛砖引玉，比如大英帝国在20世纪初从中国强行偷走和抢走的文物，像千年历史的宋代丝绢卷轴都能被他们切割一分为二展出。当然，在大英博物馆里面还有非常多这种残缺的中国文物。他们竟然认为这是对中国文化火种的保存，还到处宣传中国的文化大革命是在搞自我文化灭绝。 哈哈哈哈 多么滑稽的一套强盗理论。
