Wu Hu
Two historically significant Hu names are this "Donghu" 東胡 (literally "Eastern Barbarians") "ancient Mongolian nomadic group" and the "Wu Hu" 五胡 ("Five Barbarians") "five nomadic tribes involved in the Wu Hu uprising" (304-316 CE) against the Jin Dynasty. Hu (Foochow Romanized: Hù; POJ: Hô or Ô) was also one of the eight surnames of the first Han Chinese clans who first moved out the Central Plains into Fujian province (八姓入閩; Foochow Romanized: Báik Sáng Ĭk Mìng) during this conflict.
