A Joss is a Chinese term used to refer to a deity. It is used to describe a Chinese religious statue, object, or idol in many Chinese folk religions. Josses serve multiple functions in traditional Chinese religious customs. Although the word directly translates to “god”, the term “joss” is used to describe a physical statue that is believed to be the dwelling place of a specific deity. Josses are often decorated with golden plaques, which are given by the worshipers as a sign of reverence and respect. They are often used as a means of divination. Depending upon the tradition, josses will be found in family homes, be communally shared and appear in temples across China and Taiwan.
