Whose tomb is this?

[edit]

The image File:Tomb of Jodha Bai.jpeg currently has the description "Tomb of Jodha Bai in Jyoti Nagar, Agra". On Wiki Commons it is in the category "Tomb of Mariam uz-Zamani". It is not the same as the other image in the same category which is included on this page. If it is not the tomb of Mariam uz-Zamani, whose is it? Wiki-uk (talk) 11:32, 16 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is the tomb of Mariam-uz-Zamani who in subsequent centuries came to be known as Jodha bai though, in reality, Jodha bai is the name of Jagat Gosain, mother of Shah Jahan and wife of Jahangir aka Salim. The image you provided is the tomb of Jagat Gosain aka Jodha bai. This is the tomb of Mariam-uz-Zamani buried close to Akbar who is referred to as Jodha bai misnomerly. I hope this clears your doubt.
