Making Sense of the Terracotta Warriors

One of the most spectacular exhibitions in the history of the WA Museum – over 200 ancient Chinese treasures spanning 2,000 years have arrived in Perth.

You step into the gallery. Rows of 8,000 silent warriors meet your gaze. No two faces are the same. For a moment, the world is quiet – and you almost hear a whisper from across the ages.

Who gave them life? Why were they made, and for whom did they stand guard? In this one-hour talk, the warriors finally break their silence. Catch the whispers of the silent army and watch 2,000 years of civilization come alive before your eyes.
