About this person

Zu Dashou, courtesy name Fuyu (復宇), was a Chinese military general who served on the northern border of the Ming dynasty during the Ming-Qing transition period of Chinese history. He fought against the Qing dynasty in several major engagements before ultimately surrendering to them in 1642. An alleged descendant of the Eastern Jin dynasty general Zu Ti, he was a son of Zu Chengxun, who had been dispatched to Korea as one of the Ming commanders during the Imjin War (1592-1598). And he was the maternal uncle of the Ming general Wu Sangui, who surrendered Shanhai Pass to Qing forces and defected to the Qing side. Zu's tomb was acquired by the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada, and is considered one of the "iconic objects" of the museum.
