Luanti

Luanti

The Luanti (Zh-cw|c=挛鞮|w=Luant'i, alternatively written as Xulianti 虚连题) was a clan and the ruling dynasty of the ancient Xiongnu that flourished between 3rd century BCE to 4th century CE. It was the clan that held some of the highest positions in the Xiongnu society, including the title of chanyu within the Xiongnu confederacy. The earliest prominent figure from the clan itself was perhaps their leader Toumen. Later one, a branch of the Luanti changed their family name to Liu.
