Talk:Bozhong Mountain

Where is the mountain?

Seems like more than one place is named after the mountain from the Book of Documents. Please note that we are trying to match a modern-day location with a location mentioned thousands of years ago in a religio-historical text. I recommend making at least two more pages (using the names currently used for the mountains- whatever those names may be), one for the Bozhong in Gansu and and one for the Bozhong in Shaanxi.
