Nong Zhigao (Chinese: 儂智高; pinyin: Nóng Zhìgāo; modern Zhuang language: Nungz Ciqgaoh; Vietnamese: Nùng Trí Cao)[3] (1025–1055?) was a Zhuang (Nùng) chieftain and the only emperor of Dali (大曆; 1041), Nantian (南天; 1045–1052), and eventually Danan (大南; 1052–1053).

Today, he is admired by the Zhuang people of China, as well as the Nùng and Tày peoples of Vietnam. His father, Nong Quanfu, was a leader of the local Zhuang people in Guangyuan, Guangnan West Circuit, of the Northern Song dynasty.
