      And the power God has to shut it down when it gets out of control.
      Like He did with Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome.

    The mastery of the craftsmanship must be unequalled ANYWHERE even though there are many excellent items created and then crafted in many parts of the world where ancient civilizations existed. Such a shame that "instructions, teachers, materials and where to find them" aren't possible. I wonder,too, if there's anyone on this globe today who would have the interest, the patience, the fine motor skills and the PERSONAL HIGH STANDARDS to learn any ancient skill and then possibly attempt to create a work using the same methods, style, creativity and commitment. Unequalled. Unparalleled. And how wonderful that these finds exist. Thank you to those who understand that all of these beautiful ( I call) works of pure art are valuable, document-able and preservable. Thank you to those who understand the IMPORTANCE of keeping these objects/items safe.

    Emperor chin fascinated me. The fact that he conquered in United China was a huge accomplishment. But the truth to this man was. He was a savage to those lands that he took over. Because unfortunately, the royals were forced to work the wall and were actually buried in it as the Marvel of The Great Wall that we can see from space. It's nothing more than a cemetery. The fact of his tomb is astonishing a true Marvel. Something birthtaking and amazing words couldn't describe of what's his tomb? Looks like they should send a drone in. We have little flying drones. We have drones that look like bugs. We could drill a hole and put a drone through and have an outlook without disturbing anything or breaking anything. But the history and artifacts that are in. There is so much history for china that still is unknown
