Inca Roca (Quechua: Inka Ruq'a, "magnanimous Inca") (c. 1350 – c. 1380) was the sixth Sapa Inca of the Kingdom of Cusco (beginning around 1350) and the first of the Hanan ("upper") Qusqu dynasty. His wife was Mama Michay, and his son was Yawar Waqaq.

He had four other famous sons: Inca Paucar, Huaman Taysi Inca, and Vicaquirau Inca. Vicaquirau Inca and Roca's nephew Apu Mayta were great warriors, who helped subjugate Muyna, Pinahua and Caytomarca. He died c. 1380.
