Mow-way or Moway (Comanche: Mo'o-wai, , lit. 'Pushing Aside' or 'Pushing-in-the-Middle'; c. 1825 – 1886) also referred to by European settlers as Shaking Hand or Hand Shaker, was the principal leader and war chief of the Kotsoteka band of the Comanche during the 1860s and 1870s, following the deaths of Kuhtsu-tiesuat (Little Buffalo) in 1864 and Tasacowadi (Big Cougar or Big Spotted Cat) in 1872.
