Jembulat Boletoqo (Adyghe: Болэтыкъо Джанболэт, romanized: Bolətıqo Dɉanbolət) was a Circassian military commander, politician, nobleman and leader of the Temirgoy region. He was one of the most influential figures in the Russo-Circassian War. He had a big influence on the entire Trans-Kuban region. He was famous for his courage and tough will. He had great influence among all Circassians, including the Abadzekhs, with whom he was associated with.

Hailing from the Temirgoy (КIэмыргъуэй) tribe and being the son of Aytech Atajuq (Hatokhshoqo), he was born into a wealthy princely clan which held massive influence in the trans-kuban region.
