Question 70

The Terracotta Army was discovered in 1974 by local farmers in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China.

The early Great Wall (during the Qin Dynasty) was called the "Wall of 10,000 Li" as it was a massive construction project spanning a great distance, with "10,000" being a symbolic reference to its great length.

One "li" (Chinese unit of length) is approximately equal to 1/3 of a mile. This is a standard conversion for the traditional Chinese li to the imperial mile.

Answer:

B. 1974
