This book includes papers from the Symposium, Kingdom of the Coral Seas, November 17, 2007, at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. The symposium and lectures brought Okinawan archaeology to a wide audience, including many students, professionals and those with an interest in this fascinating part of the Japanese archipelago from across Europe and elsewhere. The current volume represents a full record of the proceedings of the symposium, hopefully bringing the Ryukyus to an even broader readership.Papers by Shijun Asato, Hiroto Takamiya, Naoko Kinoshita, Akito Shinzato, Susumu Asato, Meitoku Kamei, Takashi Uezato, and Arne Rokkum.
