[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [qb] [IMG]http://realhistoryww.com./world_history/ancient/Misc/Races/Yellow_5.jpg[/IMG] [/qb][/QUOTE]this is one of Mike's famous lies Check any source that describe how these figures were painted. They were not painted black. That is a 100% LIE Mike is trying to put over. The terracotta army are in various conditions. Most like the ones in the above picture have nearly no paint on them, only a few flakes. -look it up on google the words "terracotta army" "color""grey""paint" The term Terracotta is also used to refer to items made out of this material and to its natural, brownish orange color, which varies considerably. The iron content gives the fired body a yellow, orange, red, "terracotta", pink, grey or brown color. The term Terracotta is often used to describe unpainted clay sculpture. The Terracotta army is called the Terracotta army because on the vast majority of figures little to no paint survived that once covered the figures. Examples of color variation in UNPAINTED Terracotta >>> [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/picture-13-2.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-13-2.png[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/picture-14-2.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-14-2.png[/IMG][/URL] The about 8,000 soldier Terracotta army is made of clay that is naturally swirled with both gray and orangish-red color . . _________________ http://www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/shaanxi/xian/terra_cotta_army/sculpture.htm [b]The Qin terracotta warriors we see today are steel grey [/b]without fresh colors. But archaeological investigations have found that this was not the original color of the mighty force. In the April of 1999, there were astonishingly unearthed six kneeling armored warriors whose bodies retained large sections of colorful painting, which demonstrated that the Qin's artisans had elaborately painted the terracotta warriors and horses after firing, to make this majestic army more lifelike. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2012/06/terra-cotta-warriors/larmer-text [i]Qin’s army of clay soldiers and horses was not a somber procession but a supernatural display swathed in a riot of bold colors: red and green, purple and yellow. Sadly, most of the colors did not survive the crucible of time—or the exposure to air that comes with discovery and excavation. In earlier digs, archaeologists often watched helplessly as the warriors’ colors disintegrated in the dry Xian air. One study showed that once exposed, the lacquer underneath the paint begins to curl after 15 seconds and flake off in just four minutes—vibrant pieces of history lost in the time it takes to boil an egg. Now a combination of serendipity and new preservation techniques is revealing the terra-cotta army’s true colors. A three-year excavation in Xian’s most famous site, known as Pit 1, has yielded more than a hundred soldiers, some still adorned with painted features, including black hair, pink faces, and black or brown eyes. The best-preserved specimens were found at the bottom of the pit, where a layer of mud created by flooding acted as a sort of 2,000-year-long spa treatment.[/i] AS IS PROVEN BY THE BROKEN OFF NECK THE COLOR OF THE CLAY IS GRAY THE PAINT IS THE LIGHT ORANGY PINKISH COLOR [IMG]http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2012/06/terra-cotta-find/img/05-pinkish-tint-face-paint-horizontal-670.jpg[/IMG] here's the URL> http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2012/06/terra-cotta-find/img/05-[b]pinkish-tint-face-paint[/b]-horizontal-670.jpg "pinkish-tint-face-paint"________________________________________^^^ [IMG]http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2012/06/terra-cotta-find/img/01-infantryman-faded-arm-horizontal-670.jpg[/IMG] AGAIN THE LIGHT ORANGY PINKISH^^^ COLOR ON THE HAND IS PAINT APPLIED TO THE GRAY CLAY AND AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SHOULDER RED PAINT IS FALLING OFF THE GRAY CLAY _________________________________________ NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE BELOW FIGURES, (TWO PHOTOS) PART OF THE 8000 SOLDIERS, THAT HAVE LITTLE TO NO PAINT LEFT ON THEM, YET BECAUSE THE VARYING IRON CONTENT IN THE TERRACOTTA CLAY USED, SOME FIGURES ARE MORE REDDISH WHILE OTHERS ARE MORE GRAYISH [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/picture-15-1.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-15-1.png[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/picture-16-1.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-16-1.png[/IMG][/URL] Mike you lying swine, why do you keep trying to trick people? -Guess what, I have seen some of the terrocitta army in person and I know first hand you are lying [/QB][/QUOTE]
