Scholar of the Strange and Mysterious
Tuesday, July 05, 2005 Digging tombs of Qin Shihuang, Wu Zetian under discussion Chinese experts are studying the proposals to excavate the tombs of Emperor Qin Shihuang and Empress Wu Zetian, said Zhang Bai, vice director of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage (SACH) here Tuesday at a press conference. "The tombs of Emperor Qin Shihuang and Empress Wu Zetian are preserved well and no illegal excavation and transport has been found so far," said Zhang, "We decided not to dig them right now because the technology is not mature enough," Zhang said. Emperor Qin Shihuang, who unified ancient China in 221 B.C. and established the Great Wall, died in 210 B.C. and the imperial system he built set a pattern that was developed over the next two millennia in China. Empress Wu Zetian assumed power from 684 to 690. Though her reign was brief, she was the only female Emperor in Chinese history. Having never been unearthed, the two tombs hold many mysteries. posted by Prof. Hex at 12:20 PM Comments: Post a Comment
