A study of heroic legends in the Ryukyu islands

在这次研究中，我调查了琉球群岛上的英雄传说。调查地区为奄美群岛、冲绳群岛和八重山群岛。我在奄美群岛调查的英雄们的名字是“三留三次郎”、“ERABUYONONUSHI”、“YUWANOOOYA”、“NAGARAHACHIGAN”等。“三留三次郎”是一个强大的英雄。据说他的父亲是日本著名的武士“TAMETOMO”。“ERABUYONONUSHI”是冲绳岛的悲剧英雄。我在冲绳岛调查过的英雄的名字有“SHUNTEN”、“EISO”、“SATTO”、“SHOUHASHI”、“SHOUEN”等。他们是琉球王朝的缔造者。据说“SHUNTEN”的父亲也是一名武士“TAMETOMO”。我在久美岛调查的英雄们的名字是“古史卡瓦吉”、“堂野hiya”、“CHINBE”等。久美岛属于冲绳岛。“CHINBE”是一位女巫师。我在八山群岛调查过的英雄们的名字有“八akeakahachi”、“NAKAMAMITSUKEI”、“naatafuji”等。一直以来，“八宅八”被认为是一个反抗琉球王朝的人。然而，它现在被认为是英雄之一。通过对琉球英雄传说的研究，澄清了琉球英雄传说的实质。

The names of the heroes whom I investigated on the Amami Islands are "SANEKUSANJIRO," "ERABUYONONUSHI," "YUWANOOOYA," "NAGARAHACHIGAN"etc. "SANEKUSANJIRO" is a powerful hero. His father is said to be "TAMETOMO," a famous samurai in Japan. "ERABUYONONUSHI" is a tragic hero on the Okinoerabu-Island.The names of the heroes whom I investigated on Okinawa Islands are "SHUNTEN," "EISO," "SATTO," "SHOUHASHI," "SHOUEN" etc. They are founders of Ryukyu Dynasty. It is said that the father of "SHUNTEN" is also a samurai "TAMETOMO." The names of the heroes whom I investigated on Kume-Island are "GUSHIKAWAAJI," "DOUNOHIYA," "CHINBE"etc. Kume-Island belongs to Okinawa Islands. "CHINBE" is a female shaman.The names of the heroes whom I investigated on Yaeyama Islands are "OYAKEAKAHACHI," "NAKAMAMITSUKEI," "NAATAFUUJI" etc. It has been thought that "OYAKEAKAHACHI" was a person who had resisted Ryukyu Dynasty.
