Shunten (舜天, 1166–1237), also known as Shunten-Ō (舜天王, lit. "King Shunten"), was a legendary ruler of Okinawa Island. Shunten is the earliest chief in Okinawa for whom a name is known. He is said to have taken power after defeating a usurper to the throne by the name of Riyū who had overthrown the 25th chief of the Tenson dynasty.
