How far back does the history of Karate go back in Okinawa?
False. The entire story of Okinawans defending themselves against samurai because their weapons were taken away is myth.It can be traced back to the late 17th century when a ban on weapons was imposed by the samurai rulers of Japan. Here is so much information about Karate.
