Question

Terra Cotta warriors seem so great! I wish i could go see them! But i do have a question! Where is shi huang's actual body located?? I've been looking it up on google and the only answer i got was that it hasn't been discovered yet! But of course I don't know when that was posted so it could have been a while ago! I've also seen comments on some website like this where people say that is was near by, and also in the middle of pit 1....... I need to know for a paper!! help!

The body of emperor Qin Shi Huang should be buried at the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. You can check this website: https://www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/shaanxi/xian/terra_cotta_army/mausoleum_1.htm

OK, I now know that it was at least found and I believe it and all, but why would Shi Huang want to be buried 22 MILES away from his army????? How can they protect him from that far away?? and it says that he was more east from the soldiers, and the enemies are in the east, so he is closer to the enemies with his army behind him...... it just doesn't seem like a good plan? Am I right about this location or am i missing something?

Mr.Hello · Answer

I don't agree with u. The layout of the mausoleum is from the consideration of the Emperor's wish to be immortal. When he was alive, he was always pursuing the way to be immortal. He yearned for the fairyland in the eastern sea. So couldn't get the immortal pill when alive, he faced east in the hope of being delivered to the fairyland.He had already conquered the other states when alive, so the distribution of his mausoleum showed his will of leading his army and delivered to the fairyland. This is my opinion.

The Terracotta Army is actually to the east of the Mausoleum, and the burial chamber has not been excavated for technical reasons.
