- Kaidā_glyphs abstract "Kaidā script (Yonaguni (Dunan) Ryukyuan endonym: Kaidā dī / カイダーディー; transcribed to Japanese: Kaidā ji / カイダー字) is a writing system of unknown provenance once used in the Yaeyama Islands and on Yonaguni, the southwestern-most of the Ryukyu Islands in Japan. They were primarily used along with Suzhou numerals for economic records: taxes, business transactions, crop and fishery yields, and the like. During the Meiji Era they were used for postings in primary schools; they were evidently accurate enough to make corrections to official announcements. Although some Kaidā tax records on wood are preserved in the National Museum of Ethnology, the overwhelming majority have been lost or discarded over the years, particularly those written on material such as leaves. They are currently used on Yonaguni and Taketomi for folk art, T-shirts, and other products, more for their artistic value than as a writing or record-keeping system. Distinctions that were optional in the Yonaguni language were reflected in kaida writing, as there are separate glyphs for commercially important distinctions like mare (mīnma) and stallion (biginma).".
