The Terracotta Warriors were encountered by a TimeDancing Brooklyn and Fu-Dog in 210 B.C.E. ("Underwater")
Real World Background
The Terracotta Warriors were part of the tomb of the Chinese Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi (221-210 B.C.), near the city of Xi'an. Over 8,000 of these terracotta statues were made, each sculpted to look like an individual soldier. (While these are the most famous statues in Qin Shi Huangdi's tomb, the tomb also contains statues of acrobats, dancers, musicians, and even a model of the Emperor's chariot.) They were discovered in 1974 by a Chinese farmer named Yang Zhifa, and since then have become one of the most famous finds in archaeological history.
