Suksuhu

Suksuhu was a Jurchen river tribe in the Jianzhou region of northeastern China. Nurhaci, born in 1559, belonged to its Gioro clan and grew up in the household of the Ming general Li Chengliang at Fushun.

After his father and grandfather were killed in 1582, Nurhaci expanded his power among the Jianzhou Jurchens. He united Jurchen tribes, organized the Eight Banners and founded the Later Jin, laying the foundations for the Qing dynasty.
