Dương Đình Nghệ (Hán tự: 楊廷藝, ?-937; some sources record Dương Diên Nghệ, 楊延藝) was the administrator of Giao Chỉ in around 931 AD. He was a skillful, talented general under Khúc Hạo, descendant of the Khúc family who ruled Vietnam autonomously while technically under Chinese control for three generations. Dương Đình Nghệ was challenged and defeated eventually by his general Kiều Công Tiễn who then moved up to the post of governor/administrator. This brief void left the region without rulers until Kiều fled and Dương's son-in-law Ngô Quyền established the Ngô Dynasty in 939.
