Abstract
To conclude briefly, writing a history of a Chinese god will never be the same after Gods of Taishan. My cheeky remarks above notwithstanding, a whole new methodological apparatus and set of questions has been laid out by Susan Naquin, that should be deployed when dealing with any god we would like to research. This apparatus is sure to be a long-lasting landmark in our field, as visible as Taishan soaring from the north China plain.
