Terracotta Army: The greatest archaeological find of the 20th century – BBC News
In March 1974, Chinese farmers digging a well unearthed the greatest archaeological find of the century – the buried Terracotta Army. After coming across a life-sized human head made of clay in Xi’an, China, archaeologists were called in to investigate. What they found was extraordinary. Thousands of life-like terracotta figures from the Qin dynasty, fashioned 2,000 years ago to protect the First Emperor of China in the afterlife. Archaeologist Li Xiuzhen has worked on the site since the 1980s. Her team was the first to discover that each warrior was originally painted in bright colours.

Russia has been ramping up its efforts to strangle Ukraine’s commercial links to the outside world, by launching waves of attacks along the country’s Black Sea coastline.
While there have been Russian attacks on international vessels before, they’ve never been so numerous or so deadly. Ukraine’s port administration says there were 57 Russian attacks on civilian vessels last month. Ukraine’s once bustling ports – such as Odesa, Chornomorsk, and Pivdennyi – are almost devoid of ships.
Ukraine is also targeting shipping in the war, with recent, highly successful attacks on Russian vessels, including sanctioned tankers carrying oil, as well as ships involved in carrying supplies to Russian-occupied Crimea.
Using its own drones, Ukraine has struck around 200 Russian vessels, bringing traffic in the strategic Sea of Azov to a virtual standstill.

Russia has attacked Ukraine with ballistic missiles and drones, killing at least 17 people, as Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said interceptors “could have saved lives”.
In one of the deadliest strikes across Kyiv this year – which started after midnight on Wednesday – at least 44 people were injured after residential buildings, a railway station and warehouses were hit, Zelensky said.
The Russia defence ministry said it had struck logistics hubs and supply centres in Kyiv and the surrounding region.

Iran says it has agreed shipping route with Oman, as Trump continues military threats | BBC News
Iran says it has agreed a shipping route with Oman in the Strait of Hormuz that could pave the way for the vital waterway to reopen.
It follows more military threats from US President Donald Trump, if Iran doesn’t agree to a deal for free passage.
Meanwhile, Yemen’s Houthi rebels say they have attacked a Saudi oil tanker in the Red Sea, while Israel has conducted strikes in southern Lebanon, accusing Hezbollah of violating the ceasefire.
And inside Iran, the UN say 56 people have been executed since mid-March on charges relating to national security.

Terracotta from italian means (Boiling Ground).
Anyway, who knows how much man power they needed (same as for the building of the pyramidess) to have made each ''soldier" in such detail.

We were there, say late '90s. I remarked to our guide it was fortunate the site had not been found during the 'Cultural Revolution'. He admitted he was too young to know, but his parents had also expressed relief for the same reason. Mao's idiocy could have caused much greater harm.

Modern historians often refute the extraordinary claims made by ancient historians, and consider many things exaggerations or myths. But it's fascinating when we discover some things to be true. We find it hard to believe because we live in a much different world where those massive amounts of manpower and money only go towards projects like building the Panama canal, or the NYC subway system, and not into projects we would consider non-essential in our time. People wouldn't believe the ancient Egyptians stacked two million 10 ton stones if the pyramids disappeared in Antiquity. I bet the ancient wonders of the world, like the hanging gardens of Babylon, were as great as they say.

So reminds me of the Bible stories about man being created from clay and of Noah's arc, no two alike and one of every kind. Keeping an open mind on the facts that those places are here somewhere on earth and no one has yet figured out where or how. Similar to Moses and Egypt, it would make so much sense for the plagues to have came down from the pyramids and all those chambers and things in the pyramids no one has an explanation for their use, what if they were used to hold and breed the locusts and other insects, that where the let out through one of those tunnels heading towards the ought, and fell upon the people living below. This could also apply to the other parts of the plague and areas around the pyramids, especially since during this time frame these were things used in warfare and siege.

How are you going to make a video profiting off of this where you mention the farmers that found it but completely negate the fact that out of I believe seven people who found this discovery were all pushed off their land. They had their houses and and their land taken from them. They received absolutely nothing for finding this (which sadly is the norm on this planet, to discover something in the credit goes to your government and its museums). One of them has committed suicide and the rest of them have died in poverty of the one or two that are remaining the occasionally get to sign autographs for pennies. I'm not saying you need to be rewarded handsome fee for a discovery, but it certainly seems like the handsome reward for this discovery went to people that didn't discuss it. And now here is the bbc history getting their slice of the pie without ever mentioning the strife that the people who actually deserve the credit for fighting this went through.

This ritual is very similar to Ancient Egyptians preserving animals and human amulet alongside their deceased to serve in afterlife…sadly though many concubines were buried alive when their Emperor died. Monastic life was their only alternative option to live.

It’s completely breathtaking, not even a Spielberg movie could dream up an archaeological artefact of thjs spectacular magnitude. 8000 figures, 130 chariots, 520 horses in over 25,000 Sq metres! They believe it’s only a tiny part of a much larger ancient complex. Chinese hearts must’ve been bursting with honour and pride after the first exhibition was opened to the public in 1975, just 1 year after the Terracotta Army was discovered in 1974.
