Biography & Historical Record

Gao Jun (高儁, Cao Tuấn; c. 210s–c. 250s AD) was an official of the state of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. He was the eldest son and designated heir of Grand Commandant and Minister of Works Gao Rou (高柔), representing the venerable Chenliu Gao lineage.

Noted for his filial discipline and administrative competence, Gao Jun was appointed Magistrate of Nanhuang (南黄令). However, he succumbed to illness at a relatively early age, predeceasing his long-lived father. His son Gao Xi (高谐) later inherited the noble title of Marquis of Anling upon Gao Rou’s passing.
