Zhang Cang is from Yangwu County, Henan Province. He was originally the censor of Qin Dynasty, and later returned to Han Dynasty. In the fifth year of emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), he was granted the title of Marquis of Beiping because of his contribution to pacifying the rebellion of zangda, king of Yan. Four years before Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty (176 BC), Guan Ying, the prime minister, died, and he became the prime minister. Fourteen years later, he left because of illness. After his death, he was buried in Zhanglin, which was later mistaken as Zhangling.

The precious relics unearthed from zhanglingshan are collected in Nanjing Museum.
