Warrior Guards of Qin

 

Warriors of Qin

Ranks of 1/3rd scale warriors of Qin (Ch'in for those over 50) Shi Huang di stand in the positions their full-scale brethren occupied as they guarded the tomb of their emperor.  Qin Shi Huang di was the 1st Emperor of China and to protect his tomb he ordered more than 7000 life-size terra-cotta warriors created.  These copies are located at the China pavilion in Epcot Center in Walt Disney World.
