Maha Pyauk (Burmese: မဟာပြောက်, pronounced [məhà bjaʊ̯ʔ]; d. October/November 1400; also spelled Mahabyauk) was governor of Yamethin and a key army commander from 1395/96 to 1400. He emerged as one of the pretenders to the Ava throne after King Tarabya's assassination. But Pyauk himself was assassinated by Prince Theiddat, who wanted his elder brother Minkhaung to succeed.
