Soldiers-NDR

that is really neat. question though.why are there so many headless soldiers?
 
The heads ( or pieces ) have not been found or put back together. Every face is different. They have uncovered approximately 1000 soldiers of the 7000 that they say are on site. The army was created to defend the first Emperor in the next life; much like the Pharaohs in Egypt.The terra cotta Army is in Xi'an China. Xi'an is 1200km NW of Shanghai.
 
Got back last night, Carl. I was in China for 9 days for work. The weekend was mine, so I got plane to Xi'an to see the Terra cotta army.
 
Very cool.

Did you get adventurous with the local cuisine?
I have an acquaintance who was over there for a month doing aquaculture work, he loved the food but definitely had to be open to trying new things!
 
I only eat what is in front of me!

I have always enjoyed the local cuisine. This was my 3rd trip to China.
 
I don't know about Chinese ants, but in my youth I taught environmental education classes for kids and did a wild edibles walk. American ants were a reliable item that every kid could find, and have a lemon-vinegar tang that would be really good with nuts. Seriously . . . . .
