Mojs (I) from the kindred Ákos (also Moys, Majs or Majos; Hungarian: Ákos nembeli (I.) Mojs; died after 1299) was a Hungarian baron at the end of the 13th century, who served as Master of the treasury in 1291.
His name derived from the Latin variant (Moyses) of the biblical name Moses. Mojs was born into the Ernye branch of the gens (clan) Ákos as the son of Albert the Great (Master of the horse from 1270 to 1272 and Ban of Severin in 1272), he had also two younger brothers, John and Ákos. Mojs' uncle was Judge royal Ernye Ákos, thus he was also a cousin of the oligarch Stephen Ákos.
Mojs I had at least three children from his unidentified wife; Mojs II who made an alliance with oligarch James Borsa and the sons of the late Ladislaus Kán in 1315 and caused a rebellion against Charles I of Hungary; magister Ellős who died before 1329 and a daughter who married to Andrew Sárpataki.
He was first mentioned by contemporary records in 1278. He functioned as ispán of Ung County in 1284. According to a non-authentic charter issued in 1289, he held the position of Voivode of Transylvania from 1287 to 1288. Although that diploma is definitely a forgery, should be considered that there is no information on Roland Borsa's second voivodeship (1284–1294) for the period between the summer of 1285 and 1288. If Mojs I actually held the office then he was also ispán of Szolnok County in the same period.
