Sources & scope
UNESCO identifies Mount Songshan as the central sacred mountain of China near Dengfeng in Henan, and an official Henan government page independently uses Songshan Mountain. These support the recorded Song Shan identity at massif scope only. Exact summit point, elevation, prominence, alternate-name equivalence beyond the listed verified forms, and containment of individual peaks are not included here.
