*[[Higashionna Kanjun]] wrote about the Tametomo myth in his first journal article, ''Tametomo Ryûkyû torai ni tsukite'', which appeared in the journal ''Rekishi chiri'' in April the same year as Katô's publication.　In that essay, Higashionna suggests that as the Tametomo story is the central grounds for the argument that Okinawa belongs, historically and fundamentally, to Japan, it must be the departure point for any scholar of Ryukyuan history. The following year, in 1907, he published a number of articles on the subject in the Ryukyu Shimpo, and then in 1908, another formal journal article in rekishi chiri. Yokoyama, 6.
