1. The website that this source is from is http://www.anniebees.com/China/China_42.htm

2. Anne Bee is the author of this source.

3. The credentials are China itself and that's it. 

4. My source has pictures of the army and one piece of information that interested me was that Emperor Qin ordered that his underground army be built when he was 13.

5. Yes I believe my source.

6. I believe my source because the information and pictures come from china. There are barely any ads and there is Chinese language for decoration, so I know its from China.

1. The website that this source is from is 
http://www.technologystudent.com/culture1/terrcot1.htm

2. This source is by V. Ryan.

3. There are no credentials for this source.

4. My source says the same stuff , but useful stuff, as my other sources but in this source I found that the Terracotta Army was built in preparation of Qin Shi Huang's death. It was an underground kingdom that Qin would rule through death and the army made of stone would be his army.

5. I believe my source because this is an assignment for students at a college of some sort and above the assignment is information. This info is from the students teacher so I believe this source. 

6. the answer to this question is in question 5.

1.  The website my source is from is http://www.chinahighlights.com/xian/terracotta-army/

2. The only thing I could find that could possibly answer this question is Xi'an Attractions.

3. The Credentials are not people but guides to exhibits. This site is a site where you make arrangements to take a trip to China and this article is one of the many exhibits of China that the website has. The Terracotta army or Warriors is a main attraction.

4. My source says a lot of stuff but one thing that I will mention in this post is that the stone army  holds real, probably once used, weapons in their hands. These weapons were from the time when the Qin Dynasty was around. 

5. I believe my source because this website is really about people who want to take a trip to China and it will be arranged by people in China.

6. The answer to this question is in question 5

Gregory's power point presentation for China Project Blog Post for source # 2

1. The website that this source is from is http://archaeology.about.com/od/china/a/terracotta.htm

2. The author of this source is K. Kris Hirst from About.com

3. The author's credentials are Hu, Ya-Qin, from Journal of Archaeological Science, Liu, Z., from Journal of Archaeological Science, and Xiaoneng Yang from Yale University Press, New Haven, Connecticut.

4. This source says that the exquisite Terracotta army of the first Qin Dynasty ruler Zheng, who renamed himself Qin Shihuangdi, the first emperor of Qin,  had the terracotta army built as a representation of his ability to control the resources of the newly unified China, and his attempt to recreate and maintain that empire in the afterlife. 

5. I believe my source because the information in the article has the same accurate information from my first source and the author's sources for the article are all from Chinese people who would obviously know about historical things in China like the Terracotta Army. 

6. My answer to this question is in question 5.

1. The website that my source is from is http://www.asianartmall.com/clay.html 

2. The group that this source comes from is COPY SCAPE.

3. There are is one credential. That is the Asian art mall.

4. My source explains what the Terracotta Army is and the history of it. Its very interesting and its an army made of clay with chariots, horses, and cities made of clay.

5. I believe the source because it comes from Chinese ancestry. I don't believe that the army will one day come to life and attack in another world because it is probably Chinese Legends.

6. my answer is in question 5
