Yokununna or Yukun (died 13 October 1934) was an Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara man who was shot and killed in 1934 by mounted constable William (Bill) McKinnon at Uluru, Northern Territory, Australia. His family emphasise that his name was "Yukun", and that in Pitjantjatjara, Yukunngana would mean "I am Yukun." However, his name has historically been recorded as "Yokununna", much to the frustration of family.
His death led to the 1935 Commonwealth Board of Enquiry into the alleged ill-treatment of Aborigines near Ayers Rock.
