Duke Wen of Jin (697–628 BC), born Chong'er (literally "Double Ears"), was a member of the royal house of Jin during the Spring and Autumn Period of Chinese history. He was exiled from Jin for approximately 20 years before finally being restored to power (r. 636–628 BC) and rapidly leading Jin to hegemony over the other Chinese states of his time. He is a figure in numerous Chinese legends, including those about his loyal courtier Jie Zhitui, whose death is said to have inspired China's Cold Food and Qingming Festivals.
