Wiman Chosŏn was a dynasty of Old Chosŏn (Go-Joseon). It began with Wiman's seizure of the throne from King Jun of Joseon and ended with the death of King Ugeo, who was Wiman's grandson. Apart from archaeological data, the main source on this historical period comes from chapter 115 of Sima Qian's Shiji.
