Gjon Muzaka (fl. 1510; Italian: Giovanni Musachi di Berat ) was an Albanian nobleman from the Muzaka family, that has historically ruled in the Myzeqe region, Albania. In 1510 he wrote a Breve memoria de li discendenti de nostra casa Musachi (Short memoir on the descendents of our Myzeqe lineage). The work was published in Karl Hopf's Chroniques gréco-romaines, Paris 1873, p. 270-340.

According to his memoirs, Gjon's father died before Ottomans captured Berat in 1417.

His name is mentioned in sources in several different versions, like John, Giovanni Ivan, and Jovan.
