Gregory's power point presentation for China Project Blog Post for source # 12


1. The website that this source comes from is http://www.radio86.co.uk/explore-learn/culture/3933/guardians-eternal-the-terracotta-army-of-the-first-emperor

2. The author of this source is radio 86 so its not a person.

3. Their credentials are pictures and China.

4. My source says a lot of information but one piece of information that sounds half stupid. The first emperor who is buried with the army didn't want to die so he sent a bunch of his people to find the land of immortals and those people never came back. In my opinion that was stupid. What was not stupid was that he took pills laced with mercury that people said would make him live longer but he died of the mercury. Though back then people didn't know they could die from putting mercury into their body. Today that would be stupid, not back then.

5.I believe my source.

6. I believe my source because there is valuable information and that people back then did things that seemed smart but today people realize is stupid.
