Chinese archaeologists have unearthed 110 new terracotta warriors that laid buried for centuries.
The life-size figures were excavated near the Qin Emperor’s mausoleum in China’s northern Xi’an city over the course of three years, and archaeologists also uncovered 12 pottery horses, parts of chariots, weapons and tools.
"The most significant discovery this time around is that the relics that were found were well-preserved and colourfully painted," the deputy head of the museum’s archaeology department, told AFP.
The warriors, part of the famed army built to guard the tomb of China’s first emperor, have become one of China’s most visited tourist attractions.
