The statement that is not true about Emperor Qin Shi Huang is that his tomb was surrounded by more than ten thousand life-sized figures, all bearing his likeness; the actual number is around 8,000, and they do not all represent him. Additionally, several other statements about his tomb and dynasty are accurate. Therefore, this misrepresentation makes the statement incorrect. ;
