Gaou Guinou was an African prince of the Allada Éʋe people who was captured and enslaved by his brother in 1724.

According to Haitian oral traditions, Gaou Guinou's father, Soso died in 1724 leaving two sons: Hussar and Gaou Guinou. However Hussar fled to Abomey while Gaou Guinou, the younger brother took power of Great Ardra.[1] Hussar allied himself with Agaja, the ruler of Dahomey.
