Biography

Ikegusuku Antō was the second head of an aristocrat family called Mō-uji Ikegusuku Dunchi (毛氏池城殿内). His father was Aragusuku Anki.[2]

Antō served as a member of Sanshikan during Shō Gen and Shō Ei's reign. He was dispatched as congratulatory envoy to Ming China together with Sai Chōki (蔡 朝器) to celebrate the investiture of Crown Prince Zhu Yijun (later Wanli Emperor) in 1569.[3]

Disappearance

In 1579, Chinese envoys would come to Ryukyu to install Shō Ei as the new king. But Ryukyu was suffering from famine in this year. Antō was sent to China to ask for postponement, but his ship was caught in a storm and disappeared in the sea.[1]

gollark: Leaving HTML support on on the public demo instance was in fact a poor choice of mine.
gollark: With some fiddling, you can probably make replicators which piggyback on other ones.
