Thanks for some of the best pics of Xian on Webshots. It truly is an interesting album. I saw the Exhibit of the Terra Cotta figures that toured the US. They were in Dallas and I went to see them with a friend. It was amazing, it must have been spectacular to see the pits and where they came from. Its interesting the Chinese, like the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians were all concerned about the "spirits&quo t; and the afterlife. I am interested in ancient religion and that thread runs through almost all of them, along with the story of the flood. Again thanks for a delightful tour.
