Lady Wu Sha Tomb (吳沙夫人墓) - Spectral Codex
吳沙夫人墓

A joint tomb built in 1808 for Wu Sha’s primary wife Zhuang Shuniang (莊梳娘) and two of his daughters-in-law with surnames Huang and Liu. Wu himself is buried separately at the Wu Sha Tomb in the former Sandiao District (三貂堡). Most of what stands today is a 1977 reconstruction; only the original headstone dates back to the Qing dynasty era, inscribed with the imperial titles posthumously bestowed on the three women. A 1978 sandstone stele beside the grave records the family history but is now badly weathered.
