Uezu no dun, or Iishi nu dun, is a sacred space in Nanjô City on Okinawa Island. The site is associated with Shô Furi, a royal prince who fought and died in a famous 15th century succession dispute; though Furi is generally said to have died in 1453, local conventional wisdom in Nanjô holds that he survived another ten years, and established a number of sites, including Uezu nu dun.
