Pakubuwono I (also known as Pakubuwana I, known prior to his reign as Pangeran Puger, lit.'Prince Puger'), was a combatant for the succession of the Mataram Sultanate, both as a co-belligerent during the Trunajaya rebellion (1677–1681), and the First Javanese War of Succession (1704–1707).

An uncle of Amangkurat III of Mataram, he created a new name for his line, with the title Pakubuwono, the standard name for rulers of the subsequently created Surakarta. Most Javanese chronicles (Javanese: babad) depict him as a great wise ruler. He ruled from 1705 to 1719.

His son succeeded him with the title Amangkurat IV.
