Co-hosts Garett and Inna venture south to the lush tropics of Okinawa for the second half of Mythtaken's special two-parter episode on the indigenous peoples of Japan! Join us as we discuss the mysterious order of Ryukyuan priestesses known as Noro, and their ancient seat of power nestled in the Okinawan jungle; Sefa Utaki. We explore the geopolitics that influenced post-Word War 2 Okinawa, and how dominant cultures can reshape and influence perceptions of indigenous cultures.
