YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO 2 (5)：Deleted Tribute Records to Later-HAN

3. Focus on "東觀漢記" Editors We focus the editors of "東觀漢記", which was the official history of the Later HAN Dynasty. But there is already no original and copies of "東觀漢記" now. Therefore we will look at "Book of the Later HAN" edited by ≪范曄≫ who wrote it referring to "東觀漢記", which existed at 5th century still. We will focus the period from ≪靈帝≫(AD168-189) to "Emperor Xian" (AD189-220) of "Book of the Later HAN" and with a time series. In the early (AD168-178) of ≪靈帝≫ period, "Jianning" and "Xiping" eras, the other editors existed. But they did not exist after. Here we focus especially "中平" (AD184-189), which is the last era of ≪靈帝≫, AD184-189. Because this period is most likely to bring the Queen HIMIKO tribute to the Later HAN Dynasty. It is just after WA-koku-TAIRAN and is at the last era of ≪靈帝≫, "中平" (AD184-189). Five editors existed, especially for AD184-189. ≪韓說≫ (...

"中平" is the last era name (AD184-189) of ≪靈帝≫ of the Later-HAN Dynasty . The gold contents of "Gold-Inlay Inscription" is high purity extreamly.

2. Chinese Text about Queen HIMIKO In this book, we will talk as below. HIMIKO enthroned at AD183 younger 13 years old, just after "WA-koku-TAIRAN" in Japan. Immediately Queen HIMIKO brought tribute to the Later-HAN Dynasty of China. And Queen HIMIKO was recorded in the official record of the Later HAN Dynasty, "東觀漢記", as follow. ≪靈帝≫ presented a gold seal and iron sword to the Queen HIMIKO of "YAMATAI-koku" in "WA" of Japan at AD189". ≪靈帝≫ of the Later HAN Dynasty died just after at the same AD189. And this record "Tribute of HIMIKO to Later Han Dynasty" was deleted from the official record, "東觀漢記".  Moreover for AD190-238, Gongsun was independent on ⫷遼東⫸ locally. Gongsun took control of ⫷遼東⫸, ⫷樂浪⫸, ⫷帶方⫸, ⫷渤海⫸. Therefore for this AD190-238, the route between Queen HIMIKO and the Later HAN Dynasty had been blocked out. But at AD238, Gongsun was punished by Cao WEI. At this AD238, the route has been still on wartime, never...

◆Appendix I. Calendar of "中平" 　 Calendar of "中平" used below five Solar Eclipse points for making. ○ 光和元年, AD178NOV27 ＜Original＞ "冬十月・・丙子晦，日有食之。" [REF.靈帝紀] ＜TRANS＞ "冬十月" ･･ "丙子晦", Solar Eclipse. ※ This day did not fit with a calculated Solar Eclipse. ※ But OCT final day "晦" was "丙子". ● 光和二年, AD179MAY24 ＜Original＞ "夏四月甲戌朔，日有食之。" [REF.靈帝紀] ＜TRANS＞ "夏四月甲戌朔", Solar Eclipse. This is the Solar Eclipse of AD179MAY24. But there is no "甲戌" in "光和二年夏四月". If we are "光和二年夏五月甲戌朔"＝AD179MAY24, the Later HAN Calendar and the day of the Solar Eclipse just fit. We will read the later texts a little. ＜Original＞ "夏四月甲戌朔，日有食之。辛巳，中常侍王甫及太尉段熲並下獄死。丁酉，大赦　，諸黨人禁錮小功以下皆除之。東平王端薨。五月，衛尉劉寬為太尉。秋七月，使匈奴中郎將張脩有罪，下獄死。" [REF.靈帝紀] ＜TRANS＞ - -  There is no "六月". If we change "夏四月" to "夏五月", there are "甲戌朔", "辛巳", and "丁酉" ...
