Oroku Ryôkyô was a Ryukyuan aristocrat-official, and member of the Sanshikan under King Shô Iku (r. 1835-1847). He was the 11th head of the Ba Family (Oroku House).
He served at Court from a young age, beginning as a dancer in 1807. In 1818, he was appointed jitô (steward) of Oroku magiri, making him "Oroku anji." Ryôkyô later served in a number of other positions over the course of his lengthy career, including Naha satunushi, Osasu-no-soba (Minister of Foreign Affairs), and Mono bugyô (O: umun bujô, Minister of Finance).
His son, Oroko Ryôchû (b. 1819), was a prominent member of the 1832 Ryukyuan embassy to Edo, and later became appointed to the Sanshikan as well.
