Zhou Ang was a military general serving under the warlord Yuan Shao during the late Han Dynasty period of Chinese history. He was a native of Kuaiji and brother of Zhou Yu (周喁) and Zhou Xin. He was granted the post of Administrator of Jiujiang by Yuan Shao. In 192, he was attacked by Yuan Shu's army led by Sun Ben and was defeated in Yinling (陰陵).

His career is often confused with his brothers'. For example, the attack on Yangcheng against Sun Jian is often attributed to him but is actually led by his older brother Zhou Yu.
