China’s first emperor, is that the guy who had to sleep in his armor and sit in the middle of a big room with no one allowed to get within 50 feet of him because his rise to power left him SO hated by the people he ruled that he was in constant fear of assassination?
Well, I think we can all be very thankful that an insect called a parasitic wasp is almost microscopic in size. That is of course unless it gets inside you and reproduces, then you are probably in a sh!tload of trouble.
It’s not just booby traps, the area around his burial chamber is so saturated with mercury that it may never be safe to dig. From what I was told by the guide, the records say that the burial chamber included a giant map of the known world, using mercury as the water in the rivers and ocean. When the chamber collapsed, it all got absorbed by the soil.

A square 63.25 feet on each side would be about 4000 square feet. A tennis court is about 4851 square feet.

I can’t help but wonder if they caught any boobies in their traps. (o )( o)

The Egyptians wanted their mummies to stay warm in the afterlife. They never found out about thermal underwear.
