Speaking of Terracotta Warriors, it was the first Terracotta Warriors, and then Xi 'an City came into being, but our descendants didn't know about it until 1972. Terracotta warriors and horses were originally buried in ancient times, which is what we now call sculpture. When the emperor dies, he is usually buried with the living, so we should start from the slave society. After the death of a slave owner, all slaves who served him must be buried with him. The words of Terracotta Warriors and Horses are sacrificial objects such as chariots, good horses and soldiers. As for why so many things should be buried with him, it is of course to highlight the dignity of people's status. Usually, when an official is buried, the whole life is grand, let alone the emperor. Qin Shihuang claimed to be the first emperor, which was different from others.
At present, we have dug three terracotta warriors and horses pits, from west to east, which contain more than 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses and more than 40,000 weapons. It is conceivable that how much labor is needed to make this lineup day and night.
Having said that, choosing your own mausoleum is of course a place with beautiful scenery. Lintong City has a long history. Before that, many dynasties had been the treasure land next to Kyoto, with beautiful mountains and rivers. Lintong is named because it faces Lintong in the east and Lintong in the west. Moreover, guarding the city in this place is also very important. He also hopes that his descendants will last for hundreds of years after his death, so putting so many soldiers in this place is also to protect his territory.
Now you can understand why Qin Shihuang chose this place to put the Terracotta Warriors.
