Building Qin Shi Huang's tomb, which began in 246 BC, involved massive labor and resources. Thousands of workers, including soldiers, artisans, and conscripts, were employed to construct the tomb complex, including the iconic Terracotta Army, which served as guardians in the afterlife. The tomb was designed with intricate tomb chambers, waterways, and traps to protect against grave robbers, reflecting the emperor's desire for protection in the afterlife. The project took around 38 years to complete and remains one of the most significant archaeological sites in the world.

How many workers build the terracotta army?

No one knows specifically how many artisans built the Terracotta Army, because the workers were believed to be buried alive after its completion. The Terracotta Army was part of Qin Shi Huan Di's tomb which is still yet to be completely uncovered to this day. Qin Shi Huan Di's tomb took ~36 years and hundreds of thousands of workers to build. Again, no exact figures are possible because it is believed the entire hundreds of thousands strong workforce was all buried alive/killed after the tomb was completed.
