Xiahou Ba[edit]

His son Xiahou Ba was also a noteable general.

Indeed. Overlooking the fact that that sentence gave nothing to the discussion, Xiahou Ba was apparently the link between the Xiahous and the Caos; this is however disputed. Cao Wei 22:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I thought that Xiahou Yuan and Dun were brothers[edit]

Xiahou Yuan's SGZ biography states that Xiahou Dun is his older brother, not his cousin. What are the sources that contradict this? (I assume that the source mentions Xiahou Lian.)

SGZ says this: "夏侯淵字妙才，惇族弟也。" 族弟 means a brother in the clan, which does not mean they are brothers in blood. _dk 23:08, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
