Mausoleum of Li Deming (Jialing 嘉陵)
Li Deming (Chinese: 李德明) (981–1032) was the eldest son of Li Jiqian and the father of Li Yuanhao, the founder of China's Western Xia dynasty. When his father died in battle in 1004, Li Deming became leader of the Tangut people, and over the next twenty years he considerably expanded the territory controlled by the Tanguts. In 1028, he named his son Li Yuanhao as crown prince. He died of natural causes in 1032. Li Deming was officially accorded the temple name "Taizong" (太宗) and the posthumous name "Emperor Guangsheng" (光聖皇帝) by the Western Xia dynasty.
