English term or phrase: terracotta armies
Seen as the eighth wonder of the world, the terracotta armies of the emperors' Qin and Jing of China are now helping to unravel 2000 years of Chinese history. These fascinating tombs continue to increase our understanding of what China is today and where its origins lie. With strong links to the past, programme show unique footage of a modern Chinese funeral, where paper copies of a person's possessions are still made, and then burnt: paper TVs, cars, and money all accompany people to the grave.

Ratnici od terakote


Explanation:
Pre oko 2200 godina, plašeći se da će, kada umre i ode u zagrobni svet, biti nezaštićen, car Ćin je naredio da se napravi vrlo neobična “vojska” koja će ga tamo čuvati. Tako su nastali poznati “Ratnici od terakote”.
