Did the Okinawan civilians make karate?

Scholars are still debating as to who founded karate. On one hand, it is known that the warriors of the king in Okinawa trained and practiced with the Chinese warriors and priests. While legends talk about peasants learning the art to defend themselves against the Samurai, most believe it was the higher ranked officials and warriors with more free time that trained and practiced the art. Okinawa was a trade hub in east china sea. The Chinese traders knew 'Kempo' martial art whose knowledge they shared with Okinawan people. Okinawan mixed it with their own style 'Te/Tii' to form Karate. From Okinawa, the karate spread to the other parts of japan.
