In the period between the 17 th and the 18 th century, Tiên Lãng - Hả P òng served as a gateway into the Red River Delta from the East Sea. By adopting epitaph content analysis and quantitative statistics approach, this paper examines the donation of money, land and other objects by people in Tiên Lãng as part of their funeral commemoration practice (Vietnamese: cúng hậu). This paper also aims to answer some research questions regarding the manner and amount with which Tiên Lãng people donated money and other types of votive offerings to religious institutions. The answers to these questions will also provide an insight into the living standard of Tiên Lãng locals in this period and their interest in faiths and religions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
