Tây Vu Vương

Tây Vu Vương (chữ Hán: 西于王, Chinese: 西于王),^[1] or the "King of Tây Vu" (fl. 111 BC), is the title attributed by some Vietnamese historians to the leader of a popular revolt in the Jiaozhi and Jiuzhen commanderies against the rule of the Chinese Western Han dynasty.^[2]

Tây Vu Vương was the leader of the Tây Vu autonomous area of which the centre was Cổ Loa. Some historians consider that he was probably a descendant of An Dương Vương.^[3] Historian Trần Quốc Vượng saw the king as having established a fief or government at Cổ Loa.^[4][5] At the end of Han conquest of Nanyue, he was killed by his assistant Huang Tong (黄同; Hoàng Đồng).^[6][7]
