Legacy
The Wanyan clan rose to prominence among the Jurchens after 1000 CE. It was Hanpu's sixth-generation descendant Wanyan Wugunai (1021-1074) who started to consolidate the dispersed Jurchen tribes into a federation. Wugunai's grand-son Aguda (1068-1123) defeated the Liao Dynasty and founded the Jin dynasty in 1115. In 1136 or 1137, soon after Emperor Xizong of Jin had been crowned, Hanpu was given the posthumous name "Jingyuan Emperor" (景元皇帝) and the temple name "Shizu" (始祖), or "first ancestor." In 1144 or 1145, Hanpu's burial site was named "Guangling" (光陵).
