毫无疑问，如果不是1974年被发现，这座考古遗址中的成千上万件陶俑将依旧沉睡于地下。第一位统一中国的皇帝秦始皇，殁于公元前210年，葬于陵墓的中心，在他周围围绕着那些著名的陶俑。结构复杂的秦始皇陵是仿照其生前的都城——咸阳的格局而设计建造的。小陶佣形态各异，连同他们的战马、战车和武器，成为现实主义的完美杰作，同时也具有极高的历史价值。

No doubt thousands of statues still remain to be unearthed at this archaeological site, which was not discovered until 1974. Qin (d. 210 B.C.), the first unifier of China, is buried, surrounded by the famous terracotta warriors, at the centre of a complex designed to mirror the urban plan of the capital, Xianyan. The small figures are all different; with their horses, chariots and weapons, they are masterpieces of realism and also of great historical interest.
