Fuhao Jade Statue

The Fuhao Jade Statue standing in front of Fuhao Temple, is carved according to the concerned materials. Look, with shining eyes, and buckle on armour, it shows us the heroic bearing and charm of the first female general of the ancient China. The dragon-veined copper Yue, which she is holding, is the weapon she used, and it is 8.5 kgram weight. The other tiger-veined Yue is 9 kgram weight. Seen from the heavy weapons she used, we can say that Fuhao must be bold and brave. Axes and Yue were mainly used in the army in ancient times, and Yue symbolized military commanding stand and monarchical power.
