Wikipedia definition
1. Ueekata​Ueekata was the highest rank in the yukatchu aristocracy of Okinawa's Ryūkyū Kingdom though it was still below the aji nobility. Members of the Council of Three, a very high-ranking governmental body, were chosen from among the ueekata. Ueekata rank was generally obtained as the last step in a progression from shii (子) rank to satonushi (里之子), then to peekumi (親雲上), and finally to ueekata.
