Archaeologists digging in Handan, China have unearthed nearly 3,000 ancient statues of Buddha believed to be up to 1,500 years old.
Researchers in January found the statues during an excavation outside of Ye, the ancient capital of the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi dynasties, reports the London newspaper Daily Mail.
The discovery is believed to be the largest of its kind since the founding of the Communist People’s Republic of China in 1949.
