Makaba II (c.1760 – 1824) was the kgosi of the Bangwaketse from c.1790 until his death in 1824. Succeeding his father Moleta, Makaba's cattle raids against other tribes made the Bangwaketse the strongest tribe among its neighbours. He was killed during a raid by the Bakololo and succeeded by his grandson Gaseitsiwe.
