Meng Tian (蒙恬; c. 250 BCE – 210 BCE) was a Chinese general and road builder of the Qin dynasty who served under Qin Shi Huang. He was placed in command of the Qin campaign against the Xiongnu in the northern frontier and oversaw the construction of the Great Wall of China with 300,000 labourers as a bulwark against further nomadic raids.^[1] The invention of the guzheng, a string instrument, has also been attributed to him.^[2]
