الأصل والتاريخ

The Zhou surname is closely linked to the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BC), the longest reigning dynasty in Chinese history. The name derives from Ji Dan, the Duke of Zhou, a revered statesman and Confucian ideal of governance. Members of the royal Ji clan took Zhou as their surname after the dynasty fell. The character 周 symbolises completeness and the full cycle of things.
