Incredible

Over 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses stand ready to aid the first Xian emperor as he makes the transition to the afterlife and hopefully continues his role as an emperor in death. Although he died in 210 BC, his soldiers live on, accidentally uncovered next to his mausoleum in 1974. Their existence alone boggles the mind. However, the fact that each soldier and horse are unique in every way, implying that they were fashioned after real people, is incredible.
