Juan de Dios Calvo de la Banda y Antequera (19 February 1734 – 6 December 1801) was a colonial jurist of Cusco origin, educated at the Seminary of San Antonio Abad and at the University of San Francisco Xavier of La Plata, where he earned his doctorate in 1762. Coming from a family with extensive representation in the audiencias, he was appointed oidor of the Audiencia of Charcas in 1777, a position he held until his death. His career reflected the Crown’s official rehabilitation of the figure of his uncle José Miguel Antequera. Among his descendants are Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada Sánchez Bustamante and Marcelo Claure Bedoya.
