Khawuta ka Gcaleka (c. 1761–1804) was the second chief of the Gcaleka people, a sub-group of the Xhosa nation.
Khawuta was the eldest son of Gcaleka ka Phalo, the founder of the Gcaleka people. Khawuta had three sons, Bhurhu ka Khawuta (1785), Hintsa ka Khawuta (1789) and Malashe ka Khawuta. He became paramount chief of the Xhosas in 1792.
Kwawuta died in 1804 near what is now Kentani in the Eastern Cape Province. Other sources record 1794 or 1820 as the year of death.
