All of them, along with the carts and horses, are made of life-size terracotta. The height of the warriors varies from 185 centimeters to 209.77 cm. It is located next to an earth mound, which is a 76 meter high truncated pyramid with a total area of ​​350 m². It is believed to have been built around 240 BC. To build the Terracotta Army, China's first emperor Qin Shehuan used enormous financial and human resources and aggravated the suffering of the people.

The builders at the site numbered more than 700 thousand people, the construction time was about 40 years - until his death, when the tomb was not yet finished.
