Many skilled craftsmen for China's first emperor, around 210 BC.
Thousands of life-size clay soldiers standing in rows, along with horses and chariots, each soldier made with a different face.
This clay army was buried to guard China's first emperor after his death, and it stayed hidden underground for over two thousand years.
The figures are made of terracotta, which is clay shaped by hand and then baked hard in a very hot oven called a kiln.
Look for the tiny differences from soldier to soldier: different hairstyles, mustaches, and expressions, as if each one is a real person.
You can see them near the city of Xi'an in China, still standing in the huge pits where they were found.
Farmers digging a well in 1974 accidentally discovered the whole buried army, one of the biggest surprises in history.
