Among the many who are working on the excavation and preservation of the Terracotta Warriors, one archaeologist must be mentioned. He is Yuan Zhongyi (袁仲一) whose study on those warriors began with their discovery and often regarded as "the father of the Terracotta Warriors". In May 1988, he was appointed as the curator of the Museum of the Terracotta Warriors. After retired, he was awarded the honorary curator address by the museum for his great contribution.
There were more than 8,099 terracotta pieces found.

The Terracotta Warriors vary in height. They are on average 1.84 metres tall. Amongst these statues, the shortest one is of height 1.75 metres. And there are many statues above 1.90 metres.
I am also interested in Chinese arts and crafts, I have recently discovered a site selling Terracotta Warriors and Horses of http://www.buyterracottawarriors.com (Some things still good).

It tells us that Qin Shi Huang Di* was very worried/interested about the afterlife. Also, that he was very vain. *Qin Shi Huang Di, a member of the Qin dynasty, was the builder and owner of the Terracotta Warriors and many other things.
All the special items didn't satisfy Qin, so he built a big terracotta army that protected his tomb for eternity, like his flesh-and-blood troops that defended him for his lifetime.

The Terracotta Army was found at the foot of the mountain Lishan (骊山) in Lintong County (临潼县, today's Lintong Distract of Xi'an), 1.5 km to the east of Qin Shihuang's Tomb (秦始皇陵). Around the findspot, there was stony and deserted land, where local people seldom went to, so the Terracotta Army was found by sheer coincidence.
Because there were thousands of those warriors made vividly, still standing and preserved well for over 2000 years! And because they were found with many bronze weapons, chariots and other valuable stuff which are buried under the ground.
