Suike was a chieftain of the Wanyan clan, the most dominant among the Jurchen tribes which later founded the Jin dynasty (1115–1234). He was the eldest of Bahai's five sons. Under Suike, the clan moved to the banks of the Anchuhu River, near modern-day Harbin.[1]

Suike was posthumously honoured with the temple name Xianzu (獻祖) by his descendant, Emperor Xizong of Jin.
