Человек по имени Бао (Леопард) обладал титулом хоу территории под названием (изображение) (чтение неизвестно), ее предполагаемое местонахождение – юго-западная периферия государства Шан (район на стыке совр. провинций Хэнань и Шэньси). В науке нет единого мнения о конкретном содержании титула хоу в период Шан: это мог быть как титул зависимого, но самостоятельного в своих владениях правителя (будь то держатель царского земельного пожалования или же представитель местной династии), так и должность назначаемого ваном «чиновника». Ограниченность источниковой базы не позволяет окончательно отвергнуть ни одну из версий, но случай хоу Бао, кажется, свидетельствует в пользу первой: в надписях на гадательных костях хоу Бао всегда выступает в роли подчиненного и союзника шанского вана, но по ряду признаков можно предположить, что его удел обладал высокой степенью автономии от центральной власти.
