Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum is famous all over the world, the day the tomb belongs to the terracotta warriors and horses group has attracted much attention, if you have visited the Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Warriors and Horses, you will find that the faces and expressions of these terracotta warriors are vivid, and the shape and clothing of each terracotta army are different, as if they are real people, they have thousands of faces, none of them are exactly the same, which inevitably makes people wonder, are these terracotta warriors burned by real people? It's creepy to think about.
Because china has maintained the way of burial with living people for a long time in ancient times, this kind of behavior is very cruel, so when we see so many terracotta warriors, we can't help but think, did Qin Shi Huang really order the burning of terracotta warriors with real people? It wasn't until a terracotta warrior cracked open that this age-old puzzle was finally revealed.
Ancient burial system, is a very high-standard burial system, generally only the palace nobles can use, because the use of living people to bury, that is no different from the law of killing and murder, which highlights the privileges of those palace nobles, showing how noble they are, Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum scale may be the largest in the world, after the Qin Terracotta Army was excavated, it was also called the "eighth wonder of the world", and each terracotta army is a priceless treasure.
The discovery of the Terracotta Warriors of Qin Shi Huang was not inevitable, thanks to a farmer named Yang Zhifa. Yang Zhifa just built a house in the village, to dig a well in his yard, but they need to dig a well very deep to have water, he and the workers continue to dig into the ground, he dug out a pottery and some pottery fragments, the more he looked at the more wrong, because their village around the often dug up ancient tombs, he guessed that this may not be an ordinary item, so he invited the experts of the county cultural relics bureau, experts were shocked after reading it, and rushed to report, the Qin Terracotta Army saw the light of day, the world was shocked.
So is this Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses really burned? In a cracked terracotta warriors experts finally found the answer, although the terracotta warriors are vivid as real people, but not burned with real people, the middle of the Qin terracotta warriors is hollow, and there are no traces of real people's flesh and bones, which is the craftsman at that time to the Appearance of the Qin Dynasty army soldiers one to one to portray, their expressions and looks are based on the appearance of the Qin army soldiers, that is to say, the soldiers and horses seen now, more than two thousand years ago, were really existing, with in-depth research, Experts also found the names of shangguan seals on the backs of the terracotta warriors, which are likely to be the names of the soldiers of the time, or perhaps the names of the craftsmen of the time.
In fact, there are not a few living people buried for Qin Shi Huang, but he did not use real soldiers, but adopted the smarter method of terracotta warriors, perhaps his heart really thought of using living soldiers to be buried, but according to the national conditions at that time, the army was a heavy weapon of the country, if this extreme method was used to let the soldiers bury for him, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers of the army, and there may be a mutiny, which is of course not what Qin Shi Huang wants to see, for the sake of the Qin Dynasty's thousand autumn hegemony, Qin Shi Huang naturally has his considerations.
