Dugu (surname)
Dugu is an extremely rare Chinese compound surname of Xianbei/Xiongnu origin. There is also a small Korean population with this surname in North Korea, mainly in Ryongchon County and Uiju County near the Chinese border.
During the 6th century the Dugus were a powerful aristocratic family based in northwest China. They are best remembered today by the Dugu sisters, whose marriages linked the imperial families of 3 successive dynasties — the Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang.Notable people
