Kazunori Yoshimi, right, assists Naoto Matsuda, left, with filming a historic stone placed just off the Habu Trail on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma. Yoshimi and Matsuda are reporters with Ryukyu Broadcasting Corporation. The stone is formally named Shirubi-Dote, meaning “land survey marker.” The stone has been in place for more than 250 years, and served as a point of reference during the Ryukyu Kingdom period for measurement in creating maps and grids.
