Jiang Wenxiao, excavation team leader for the western tomb of Emperor Qinshihuang's mausoleum, said the golden Bactrian camel figure that was found shows a level of exquisite craftsmanship that was rarely seen in Central China at that time.

Five other new archaeological discoveries, including the Zhaishan ruins, part of the Shimao ruins in northern Shaanxi, were also revealed during Friday's news conference.
