Terracotta figurines reveal athletic culture in ancient China

Honor guards figurines, from Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 386-557), earthed in 1965, collected by the Luoyang Museum. The figurines, holding drums, or some other similar instruments, look like performers at the Olympic opening ceremony. [Photo by Zhang Xiaoli/Asianewsphoto]
