Qin bronze chariot

The Qin bronze chariot (銅車馬 or 秦銅車馬) refers to a set of two Qin dynasty bronze model chariots that were unearthed in 1980 at the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, Qin Shi Huang (reigned 247–220 BCE). When the models were found they were in many broken pieces, and it took five years to restore them both. Both models are about half life-size. The first piece, "bronze chariot number one" (一號銅車馬), consists of an open chariot drawn by four bronze horses, with a single standing driver and a bronze umbrella on a stand placed next to him.
