Extant studies on “She Guan” in Chinese society mainly depict it as a type of sheji(earth and grains) fertility cult in ancient history. Compared to the common worship of earth god (Fude Zhengshen), one important feature of “She Guan” is the joint worship by civilians and officials above the township level. There has been no consensus in contemporary folk researches on the transformation of “She Guan” after people emigrated from the Lingnan region to Taiwan. According to the field data from Meinong, Taiwan, in the 1730s early Hakka settlers came to the foothill plains to farm wet rice paddies. Until today, there are still three (and only three) “Li She Zhen Guan Tan” that house “She Guan” in Taiwan. However, due to the lack of comparative studies between Meinong and their Hakka hometown in Jiaoling and Meisian in Guangdong, local historians tend to view “She Guan” as a type of Fude Zhengshen (Tudi Bogong). This study conducts field research in Jiaoling County in Guangdong, one of the native places of the Hakka in Meinong, Kaohsiung. Two points of discussion are, first, aspects of continuity in the cult of “She Guan” both in the native place and overseas; second, individual localized features. “She Guan” in Jiaoling seems to have been affected by characteristics of the local Gong Wang cult. As a hybrid between Gong Wang and She Guan, it presides over both water ghosts (bodies of water) and officialdom in the yang/living world, whose altars were often erected close to water. This culturally syncretic cult was brought to Meinong, Taiwan, early in the Qing dynasty, and then accepted into the Tudi Bogong cult in the settlers’ society. The cult then incorporated Bogong sacrificial rites, gradually forming a merger of “Gong Wang/She Guan.” This is an exploration of “rediscovering” local history in a retroactive research. For Meinong, the tradition of “She Guan” originated from its native place is an interesting issue. It also demonstrates a cultural encounter phenomenon with the popular Tudi Bogong cult in Hakka areas in Taiwan. In addition, this study also uses the topographical waterfront feature of “She Guan” altars to track down the ecological history of the settlements’ geographic evolution.
