About the book: 2004 / The tomb of the first Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huangdi is “guarded” by 7,000 life-size terracotta horsemen. Each warrior has individual features, and, according to assumptions, these are portraits of real people killed during the burial of the ruler of the Celestial Empire, so that their spirits would protect him in the afterlife. But, according to the world-famous researcher of ancient civilizations Maurice Cottrell, Qin Shi Huangdi was not simply the ruler of China, but one of those god-like Mentors who left to humanity sacred knowledge about the miraculous properties of the Sun and the highest principles of spirituality. And in the poses of the terracotta warriors, their facial expressions, weapons, clothes, the location of figures in space, his message to humanity is encrypted, warning from future cataclysms. Maurice Cottrell unraveled the secret code and found striking analogies between the messages of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, the Mexican ruler Pakal, the Peruvian Viracocha and the Chinese emperor Shi Huangdi. The sensational nature of this discovery gives us another chance to take advantage of the knowledge left by the Great Mentors.
