Kù (simplified Chinese: 喾; traditional Chinese: 嚳), or Dì Kù (simplified Chinese: 帝喾; traditional Chinese: 帝嚳), also known as Gāoxīn Shì (Chinese: 高辛氏), was a mythical Emperor of China during the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period. He was the son of Jiăo Jí (蟜極/蟜极), the grandson of Shăohào (少昊) and the great grandson of Huáng-dì (黃帝/黄帝), the Yellow Emperor.[1] According to speculative dates (from after 100 BC, calculated by Liu Xin) he is supposed to have ruled from c. 2436 BC – c. 2366 BC, but other dates are also mentioned.
