The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin are pottery figurines unearthed from a series of burial pits in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin, referred to as the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Mausoleum of Qin. Terracotta Warriors and Horses are a category of ancient tomb sculptures. In ancient times, human sacrifice was practiced. Slaves were the accessories of the slave owner during his lifetime. After the slave owner died, the slave had to be buried as a sacrifice for the slave owner. In addition to human sacrifice, slave owners also used a large number of pottery figurines as burial objects. The Qinling Terracotta Warriors and Horses are burial objects in the shape of chariots, horses, and soldiers made of clay. The reason why the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum is known as the eighth wonder of the world is that in addition to its extremely high archaeological value, it also has extremely high artistic achievements. The artistic achievements of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum are mainly reflected in sculpture, casting and painting.
