We take a look at the amazing Terracotta Army, a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. The Terracotta Warriors were discovered by accident in 1974 at Xi’an, in China. Local farmers were digging a well and broke into a pit containing 6000 life-size terracotta figures – each of them unique.
