*''Japanese/Chinese'': [[翁]] 士達 ''(Ô Shitatsu / Wēng Shìdá)''
Ô Shitatsu was a [[scholar-aristocracy of Ryukyu|Ryukyuan scholar-official]] and court musician.
He was named to the ''[[koakukabe]]'' (novice musicians + pages) attached to the ''shichagui'' (lower throne room) of [[Shuri castle]] in [[1735]]; this was a standard entry position for young boys first entering the court, after which they were often promoted to "court page" (''koshô'') attached to the palace "study" (''shoin''), as Shitatsu was in [[1739]].
He was then named a ''gakushi'' (lead musician) for the [[1748]] [[Ryukyuan embassy to Edo]].
