Chinese archaeologists have unearthed what they believe is a 2,400-year-old pot of soup, state media report. Did it have a curse?

In 1974, the terracotta army was found there at the burial site of Qin Shihuang, China's first emperor. He presided over the unification of China in 221BC and ruled until 210BC.
