https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lingzhi_(mushroom)&oldid=1054659558#HistoryThe word lingzhi (靈芝) was first recorded in a fu (賦; "rhapsody; prose-poem") by theHan dynasty polymath Zhang Heng (CE) (Common Era) 78–139). His Xijing fu (西京賦) (Western Metropolis Rhapsody) contains a description of the 104 BCE Jianzhang Palace of Emperor Wu of Han that parallels lingzhi with shijun (石菌; "rock mushroom"): "Raising huge breakers, lifting waves, That drenched the stone mushrooms on the high bank, And soaked the magic fungus on vermeil boughs."
