Historians know that these clay soldiers were created to guard China’s first emperor in the afterlife. What is unknown, however, is where exactly the emperor is buried or what treasures may be in his burial chamber.
A pyramid-shaped tomb is located about a mile to the northeast where the terracotta army was found. However, no one actually entered the tomb that housed Qin Shi Huang’s remains.
