Shô Shishô was the first king of the first Shô dynasty of Ryûkyû.
His father was the lord of Samegawa. Shishô's son Shô Hashi, anji of Soshiki Mairi, overthrew Bunei of Chûzan in 1406 and appointed his father, Shô Shishô, king, while he himself served essentially as regent and de facto ruler for the duration of Shô Shishô's reign. Shô Shishô received formal investiture from the Chinese in 1408[1]. He held the throne until his death in 1421.
