The Terracotta Army-Ancient China - Part 2

[@joanware6473]

Just amazing and to think it was only uncovered in 1974, you have done a marvelous job in recreating the statues, it is like there were bodies inside them.

I had the great opportunity to visit this site in Xi'an in 2011. It was an amazing experience. I was also fortunate to meet the old farmer who was digging the well and discovered this treasure. According to our guide he is well cared for by the Chinese government.

[@T5-635]

This is amazing. I have seen these faces many times in documentaries. They explained each soldier was made in the likeness of a soldier in real life. I am late and am saving your video not just for tomorrow but to share with friends. Thank you so much. Regards .

Master piece of your work. Thank you for your great contribution 🙏

just incredible how you bring this to life. I love the combination of the heads and your use of interesting background information. You are a true master at this!

@@panagiotisconstantinou From the Song Dynasty onwards, the portraits of Chinese emperors are so realistic that you can try to recreate them.

[@victoriar4637]

How completely amazing!! I'd say that this Emperor got himself built an even better tomb etc than the Egyptian Pharaoh's! And to think of using Mercury! I was thinking of how many people contributing to the inner tomb would've died from Mercury exposure, until I read when you said that many were killed to keep it secret anyway!! Yikes 😳. Absolutely wonderful though, and cool how different those figures were according to rank, position etc!!

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

I kept thinking if there was a possibility for those workers to dig a tunnel (if they had the tools with them at the time) and get out before the mercury poisoning kicked in.

The appearance of these two men is very common in North China.But the man in 4:28 is more like an indigenous tribe man from South China. He looks very much like a Southeast Asian. At that time, South China was not an area of ​​Han Chinese. Modern southerners are a mixture of northern Chinese and indigenous people, and the indigenous people of South China are actually Southeast Asians.

Surely amazing job😊👏 on historical events in Imperial China. That is still can be more interesting to have known of every Terracotta soldier to be identified with 😃👍(big/serious curiosity). I can not count how many of Terracotta military people who served during the reign of the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang in total.. I can not imagine that Emperor had built his mausoleum ,had he not? 🆗️, by the way, I cordially thank you for your wonderful project and Christmas to you!!

The faces were modeled on living men in his army however I doubt they stood 5' 9" to 6' 7" in height. I believe some of his troops were West Eurasian.

[@joekerr9036]

A lot of chopping heads were required to unite the different tribes to form a country with one language, one form of writing, a standard of measurement and one cultural identity. That's why the Chinese race got their name from this Emperor. You can see the different tribes in the costumes of the Terracotta Army.

As much as the emperor great skill himself, i would not like him to life today. His death also bring other people death. Imagine many skilled warrior, artist and architect dead because "following" him.

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

The same thing happens today, you have student loans, rents, boring jobs, overpriced products, low salaries and at the end you have nothing to show. So getting sealed in a rich guy's tomb doesn't sound so bad.

@@panagiotisconstantinou 殉葬(Soon Jang : When the king dies, the servants are killed and buried together.) is bad. Shang dynasty(BC 17c ~ BC 11c) burials were very common. They have been hunting the barbarians around them. like the Aztecs. But during Qin Shi Huang's reign, the soon-jang was considered a waste of human beings. That is why the terracotta, not the human, was buried in the tomb.

Probably the closest I'll ever get to that tomb was an exhibition of the Terracotta Army in Germany in 2003. They had original size replicas of 122 warriors and eight horses, and smaller size replicas of the whole army and the tomb in formation. Even that was very impressive. Just as a work of art, the workings behind, megalomania, slavery and killing certainly aren't.
