Accounts of his life largely come from later texts, and contemporary archaeological evidence for his personal history is limited[^enwiki][^zhwiki]. ## Fall of Shang Later accounts say that King Wu of Zhou defeated Shang forces at the Battle of Muye, bringing the dynasty to an end. Details about Di Xin's death and the battle come chiefly from later accounts[^enwiki][^zhwiki]. ## Later portrayals Zhou (紂) was a derogatory name used for Di Xin after Shang's fall. Later texts portrayed him as a tyrant; the Ming novel *Investiture of the Gods* presents a fictionalized version of him, described in [[person_cn_q131913146|the novel's portrayal of Di Xin]][^enwiki][^zhwiki]. /people/king-zhou-shang.html en zh zh en -1046 year c. c. 1046 BCE politician historical figure relation_cnportray_q131913146 person_cn_q131913146 based_on person_cn_q470072 作品中的人物形象，原型为该历史人物。 person_cn_q131913146 wikidata Portrayals person_cn_q131913146 King Zhou of Shang /en/people/king-zhou-shang-fengshen.html true person_cn_q131913146 King Zhou of Shang /en/people/king-zhou-shang-fengshen.html person based_on Portrayals relation_cnportray_q131913146 person_cn_q131913146 based_on person_cn_q470072 作品中的人物形象，原型为该历史人物。 person_cn_q131913146 wikidata Portrayals person_cn_q131913146 King Zhou of Shang /en/people/king-zhou-shang-fengshen.html true en zh en death_date Death c. 1046 BCE person_category Person category historical figure occupations Occupations politician 1 50 1 1 1 1
