Today I went to a exhibition of more than 200 grave gifts and some terracotta army figures of the first emperors of China about 200 years BC.
The exhibition was in Maaseik (Belgium). Qin dynasty (221 to 206 BC) Western Han dynasty (202 BC to 9 AD)All pieces displayed were between 2000 and 2200 years old! Last edited by Maurice; 19th December 2008 at 06:20 PM. |
