An Hokbong Terakota kadamotan nin mga terakotang eskultura nagrerepresentar kan hokbo ni Qin Shi Huang, an pinakaenot na emperador nin Tsina. Ini sarong porma nin arteng puneraryo na ilinubong kadungan kan emparador kan 210–209 BCE sa katuyohan na magbantay saiya sa saibong-na-buhay.

An mga pigurin, nag'eedad na mga 200 BCE,[1] nadukayan kan 1974 kan mga tagaduman na mga parauma sa Lintong County, luwas nin Xi'an, Shaanxi, Tsina.

Plano kan Mausuleo ni Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum asin an lokasyon kan Hokbong Terakota (). An lolobngan na sentral mismo dai pa nahohonggad.[4]

An konstruksyon kan lulubngan susog sa pagladawan kan historyador na si Sima Qian (145–90 BCE) kan Mga Rekord kan Dakulang Historyador, an pinakaenot sa 24 dynastiyang historya in TsinA, sinurat sarong siglo pakatapos pakahaman kan mausuleo. An pagtrabaho sa mausuleo nagpoon kan 246 BCE, pakatukaw lamang ni Emperador Qin (edad pa sana 13) sa pagsalida sa ama niya bilang Hade nin Qin, asin an proyekto naimbwelto an 700,000 na mga trabahador.[5][6] An Geograpong si Li Daoyuan, na nagsusurat pakalihis nin anom na siglo kan pagkagadan kan enot na emperador, iginuhit na Shui Jing Zhu an Mount Li paboritoong lokasyon ta huli kan mayaman na geologo kaini, mayaman sa mga mineral: "bantogan sa minang jade, an bandang amnayan mayaman sa bulawan, asin an bandang habagatan kaini mayaman man sa magagayon na jade; an enot na emperador, ara' na gayo kan reputasyon kaini, kaya pinili na duman siya ilubong".[7][8]

Si Sima Qian nagsurat na si enot na emperador ilinubong sa lugar na may mga palasyo, mga torre, opisyales,mga mahahalangang mga artifaks asin mga nakakawiling mga bagay. Susog sa saysay na ini, 100 na nagdadalahay na salog sagin piggibo gamit an asupre, asin an kisame pigsamnohan nin mga bulan asin bitoon na naghitsurang langit, asin ibaba kaini an topograpiya kan kadagaan. An ibang mga pagpalis kan saysay na ini nasasambitan an mga "modelo"; alagad, an sa orihinal na teksto dai man ginamit an mga tataramon na na iyan, asin dai man ngani nabanggit an hokbong terakot.[5][9] High levels of mercury were found in the soil of the tomb mound, giving credence to Sima Qian's account.[10] Also, the Emperor is well documented for building monumental statues in human form during his reign, such as the Twelve Metal Colossi.[11][12]

Ngapit an mga saysay na historikal garo nagseswestyon na an lugar na linubngan pigparakotkot asin hinabonan ni Xiang Yu, saro sa kagtukaw sa trono pakagadan kan e4not na emperador.[13][14][15] Alagad, may mga indikasyon man na an lulubngan mismo pwedeng dai man pigha'bonan.[16]

After he unified his empire, 700,000 men were sent there from all over his empire. They dug down deep to underground springs, pouring copper to place the outer casing of the coffin. Palaces and viewing towers housing a hundred officials were built and filled with treasures and rare artifacts. Workmen were instructed to make automatic crossbows primed to shoot at intruders. Mercury was used to simulate the hundred rivers, the Yangtze and Yellow River, and the great sea, and set to flow mechanically. Above, the heaven is depicted, below, the geographical features of the land. Candles were made of "mermaid"'s fat which is calculated to burn and not extinguish for a long time. The Second Emperor said: "It is inappropriate for the wives of the late emperor who have no sons to be free", ordered that they should accompany the dead, and a great many died. After the burial, it was suggested that it would be a serious breach if the craftsmen who constructed the tomb and knew of its treasure were to divulge those secrets. Therefore, after the funeral ceremonies had completed, the inner passages and doorways were blocked, and the exit sealed, immediately trapping the workers and craftsmen inside. None could escape. Trees and vegetation were then planted on the tomb mound such that it resembled a hill.
