China discovers hundreds more terracotta warriors

China is expanding the ranks of its famed Terracotta Army with new excavations expected to yield hundreds more of the life-size figures.

The museum overseeing the vast mausoleum of China’s first emperor said it began work on March 30 on the tomb’s No 2 pit which is smaller in scale but believed to be richer in archaeological value than the already excavated No 1 pit.
