Qin Shi Huang 1st emperor (230s BCE) is because the entire tomb has been told that it is full of pools of poison mercury. And they know where the tomb is. They just will not open it. There also maybe booby traps.
Also if I recall, he had a lake of mercury within. Due to their connecting it to gods and immortality. So the depths are highly poisonous. The Tera Cota army were only sections of the tomb.
The reason they haven’t opened the tomb is that it’s empty. Just a fairy tale. Their government would be so PROUD to open it if it was truly so grand. Afraid they may damage it? What a joke.
Well they did go in because they dropped one and it fell on the sword that was with it and the sword bent at a 45 degree angle. When they pick up the solider the sword when back into shape. Memory metal. From back in the day. Go look it up.
My grannie went to China and got a small box of Terracotta warriors. It's so cool I have them and have them hidden. They are tiny so I don't have to worry about smashing a wall to get them in or to fit them lol
actually，China didn't open qinshihuang‘s tomb before just because technology that time can’t ensure open the tomb without destroying the treasure inside. Once oxygen get in tomb, a lot of ancient paintings will soon turn to ashes. And now the tomb is already opened and most of thing in there have been moved to modernize storage buildings to protect them.
The other thing is the fear that, like so many other historical figures and mummies of the period, there is a terrible chance that Qin Xi Huangdi will turn out to be of a different ethnicity than has been officially supposed. Genghis Khan for instance, according to chronicles of the time, had red hair and gray eyes, yet he is nearly always portrayed as belonging to the Mongolian phenotype. If Qin Xi Huangdi comes out looking similarly “Tocharian,” it will be a tremendous blow to Chinese self-image and government propaganda.
They do not need to unearth it to know what is inside. They have meticulous records. The treasures of a Nation lie in wait for a predetermined point in the future. The Chinese play the LONG GAME. Their wealth will dwarf the remainder of the world when unearthed.
Thanks GOD the Chinese great emperor tomb is founded later..otherwise today the Chinese had to visit the Brit museum just to see theirs own ancestors tomb..& thanks to GOD again the China Great Wall are too huge & heavy to move it or otherwise it will also end up in London
since there are still tons of Hg steam in it .China scientists in 2006 put a Hg test stick into the cave,when they get this stick out back,they find there are extremly much Hg in the cave still.Consider the huge land of this cave,there are at least 35m deep ,100 tons-120tons.This is a extremly dangerous mount of Hg.If gov open this cave,no one will know how huge the damage it will cause
They not afraid its been opened and they are just hidding it now as always. Oh wait the Smithsonian MIB is going to investigate and all will be lost. 😂😂😂
Why are there so many weirdo conspiracy theorists in these comments? Not excavating tombs due to fear of destroying artifacts is something that happens in many countries. Even exposure to the air is enough to damage artifacts. There is a cave of neolithic paintings that had to be closed to the public because the very act of people walking through it—not touching it or defacing it—started to deteriorate the paintings.
So do it carefully

The researchers didn't go in but I'm sure they know what's in there. you think China of all places wouldnt find out what's in there?
The figures don't have their paint because of oxygen exposure and they don't have weapons because they were looted
Chinese want to respect their eldest.American are bullshit there are idiot.
Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum is too advanced, once it is opened, the whole of Shanxi will be gone.
Mercury contamination.
They're afraid of the mummy
Respect
Qin Shi Huang even beated hades
for sensitive people usually get headache near the hill due to the high level of mercury

Fly a drone in the tomb 🤷🏾♂️
its simple. its bec of the chinese governm-
There’s all kinda traps in there they made it to where nobody can go in there
I would be very surprised if the person who discovered all these terracotta figures got anything for the discovery
Well they did go in because they dropped one and it fell on the sword that was with it and the sword bent at a 45 degree angle. When they pick up the solider the sword when back into shape. Memory metal. From back in the day. Go look it up.
Supposedly the tomb may have fully operational traps , not to mention scans have shown the presence of liquid murcury
“Most important archeological discoveries of all time”????
And bunch of clay statues? WTF are you smoking??
Long story short its the amount of mercury
Because it's full of Mercury!
My grannie went to China and got a small box of Terracotta warriors. It's so cool I have them and have them hidden.

Its already opened they just ddnt tell yu😅
My grandma has one of the most I think it’s rlly cool
WOW…..💥💥💥💥💥
This makes me want to study history more
Typical China : See nothing….Do nothing….
CCP not interested about tomb, but landing a man on the moon, advance military, and Renmenbi currency as part of global currency.

Dam i thought it was because theres something in there that or because it was cursed
They’re literally giving out false info
Truth is they gonna be cursed
it’s probably a curse if the emperors tomb was open
Maybe the "river" of mercury running around it???

Aka archaeologists are too much of a 😺 to open it
Well Qin shi shuang time's unite and establish China… Used 1 currency and language
The soldiers stand guard, there’s no getting past them, there’s an opening to the bottomless pit inside 👍
They not afraid its been opened and they are just hidding it now as always. Oh wait the Smithsonian MIB is going to investigate and all will be lost. 😂😂😂
They're actually reluctant to enter it due to booby traps. Mercury and crossbows.
