Tây Vu Vương

Tây Vu Vương (Chinese: 西于王), or "king of Tây Vu" (fl. 111 BC), is the title attributed by some Vietnamese historians to the leader of a popular revolt of the people of Giao Chỉ and Cửu Chân commanderies against the First Chinese domination from Western Han.

Some historians consider that this king was probably a descendant of An Dương Vương. Historian Trần Quốc Vượng saw the king as having established a fief or government at Cổ Loa. At the end of Han-Nam Viet War, he was killed by his assistant Hoàng Đồng (黄同).
