The largest pit is pit #1 . The warriors were found totally smashed to pieces. Archaeologists have found 8,000 warriors, but since 1976 only 2,000 have been reconstructed. The warriors were originally painted, but when unearthed the paint peeled and faded away within days. Just within the past year the Chinese and Germans have come up with a varnish to stop the paint from corroding. Now, more warriors are expected to be unearthed and put on display.
