Summary

Description Another general view of a section of the terracotta warriors in pit 1. The sheer scale of the excavation and the meticulous arrangements of the figures was indeed astounding. The vaults are arrayed as the buried army was in strict accordance with the ancient directives on the Art of War: facing east towards the ancient enemies of Qin State (and towards the entrance), with Vault One on the right flank, Vault Two on the left flank, and Vault Three a command post at the rear.
