The terracotta army was the creation of the first emperor of China. It took thousands of workers years to sculpt his eternal army. The clay army also had soldiers, horses and bronze chariots that stood guard over the emperor's tomb which held model palaces, fine vessels and precious stones. This elaborate tomb, one of the world's great treasures, would remain hidden for over two thousand years.
