Antsokiyana Gemza (Amharic: አንጾኪያና ገምዛ "Antsokiya and Gemza") is a wereda in the Amhara Region of Ethiopia. This district is partly named for one of the districts of Shewa, Antsokia. Part of the North Shewa Zone, Antsokiyana Gemza is bordered on the south by Efratana Gidim, on the southwest by Menz Gera Midir, on the west by Gishe, and on the north and east by the Oromia Zone. The administrative center is Mekoy; other towns in Antsokiyana Gemza include Majete.

Local landmarks in this district include the Tomb of Saint Gelawdewos, where the head of the holy emperor of that name was buried in 1562.[2]
