Ikegusuku Ueekata Anken (池城 親方 安憲, 29 October 1635 30 April 1695), also known by his Chinese style name Mō Kokuchin (毛 国珍), was a bureaucrat of Ryukyu Kingdom.[1]

Anken was born to an aristocrat family called Mō-uji Ikegusuku Dunchi (毛氏池城殿内). He was the eldest son of Ikegusuku Ansei (池城 安成). Later, he became the sixth head of this family.[2]

Anken served as a member of sanshikan from 1670 to 1690.[3] He was dispatched to Satsuma for several times. He was sent to China together with Ō Minsa (王 明佐, also known by Kokuba Pekumi 国場親雲上) as a gratitude envoy for King Shō Tei's investiture in 1683.[4][1]
