 ==Origin==
 {{wikipedia|Classic of Mountains and Seas}}
-The Classic of Mountains and Seas, also known as ''Shanhai jing'' and formerly romanized as the Shan-hai Ching, is a Chinese classical text that is a compilation of mythological locations and creatures, and is considered by some to be the earliest surviving work of ancient Chinese mythology. The Classic of Mountains and Seas is divided into eighteen sections, and describes over 550 mountains and 300 channels among many other geographical features and animals. Early versions of the text may have existed since the 4th century BCE, with the latest revision thought to originate from the early Han dynasty; copies of the book have been found in Japan dating back to the late 9th century CE, and the book not only influenced many literary works of the Edo period, but various Japanese editions have been published and used as material for plays.

-The [[encyclopedia]] entry is an excerpt from ''Spectrum Atlas van de Mythologie'', where the title of the book is apparently mistaken for the name of a deity. This is likely the basis for the god's name in ''NetHack'', as there is no indication of such a deity existing anywhere else in Chinese mythology.
