[[Wani (scholar)|Wani]], a semi-legendary Chinese-Baekje scholar,<ref>[[Encyclopedia Nipponica]] {{lang|ja|[http://100.yahoo.co.jp/detail/%E7%8E%8B%E4%BB%81/ "王仁は高句麗（こうくり）に滅ぼされた楽浪（らくろう）郡の漢人系統の学者らしく、朝廷の文筆に従事した西文首（かわちのふみのおびと）の祖とされている。"]}}</ref> is said to have translated the ''Thousand Character Classic'' to [[Japanese language|Japanese]] along with 10 books of the ''[[Analects|Analects of Confucius]]'' during the reign of [[Emperor Ōjin]] (r. 370?-410?).
