• Archaeologists unearthed a 2,200-year-old 'Qin Straight Road' in China, a 900 KM ancient super highway.
• A 13 KM section was found in Yulin city, Shaanxi province, part of a massive infrastructure project.
• Built by Emperor Qin Shi Huang in just 5 years, it was a military route connecting Xianyang to Jiuyuan.
• The road was 40-60 meters wide, comparable to a 4-lane highway, built through mountains and valleys using 'rammed earth'.
• Discovered using satellite imagery in the Mu Us Desert, it's deemed ancestor of highways and China's second-largest defense project.
