Tadun (died 207) was a leader of the Wuhuan tribes during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. He was an ally of the warlord Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao's son and successor Yuan Shang.
==Life== Tadun was a younger relative of the Wuhuan chieftain Qiuliju, and was well-known for his wisdom, command skills, strength and ferocity among the Wuhuan people. After Qiuliju died sometime in the early 190s, Tadun succeeded him as the new Wuhuan leader because Qiuliju's son, Louban (樓班), was too young at the time. Tadun not only ruled over the Wuhuan tribes in Liaoxi Commandery (around present-day Lulong County, Hebei), but also those in Youbeiping (around present-day Tangshan, Hebei), Yuyang (around present-day Miyun, Beijing) and Shanggu (around present-day Yanqing, Beijing) commanderies.
