No one lived in the Great wall, well, because it was a wall. But, construction on the Great Wall started after the Warring states period, when Qin became China's first emperor. But, of course, Qin wanted to be immortal, so he drank Mercury, which killed him. But, after that, the Han dynasty took over and added on to the Great Wall. The Great Wall was there to protect ancient China from the invaders, so I guess you could say the Chinese lived inside the area the Great Wall protected... but no one lived inside of a wall, not that I have ever head of anyways.
