*''Japanese'': 与論城 ''(Yoron gusuku)''
Yoron gusuku was a 15th century ''[[gusuku]]'' (fortress, elite residence, and sacred site) located atop a hill some 94 meters above sea level, at the southern tip of [[Yoronjima]], an island located in the [[Amami Islands]], north of [[Okinawa Island]]. Nothing remains of the ''gusuku'' structures today except the stone walls. Two [[Shinto shrines]], [[Tokonushi Shrine]] and a branch of [[Kotohira Shrine]], are today located on the site.
