Abstract:Suzhou was called Gouwu in ancient times, also known as Gongwu, Juwu, Gongwu and Gusu. In the 11th century BC, Taibo and Zhongyong “ran south” from Shaanxi and established Gouwu, and their descendants were named Wu Bo as vassals by Emperor Zhou Wuwang. Its southbound route was most likely to take the “ancient road of commerce”, and it went to Jinjiang City, Jiangsu Province, and lived there, and later joined with the ancient Yue tribes, creating a “Hushu culture” with a civilization level no less than that of the Zhongyuan culture and regional characteristics. After Wu established its capital, it migrated to the southeast, and finally made its capital in Gusu (now Suzhou Ancient City). Gusu’s “Su” is probably the place name of the Chengyitai in Yue language. It was set in Kuaiji County, Qin Dynasty, and governed Wuxian County, later known as Wuzhou and Suzhou, all of which have historical and cultural origins.
