English: he origin of the word From the 1980s onward, Yoshihiko SAJI combined them and said 'koshi koden,
Japanese: 1980年代以降、佐治芳彦がこれをくっつけて「古史古伝」と言い出したのが始まりである。
English: The following classification is based on the above-mentioned "Nihon Chokodaihishi Siryo," but later, as copies of other documents were found, Kiyohiko AGO himself repeatedly revised the classification as it grew.
Japanese: 下記の分類は前述の『日本超古代秘史資料』を基本としているが、その後、他の文献写本が発見されるに従って吾郷清彦自身によって徐々に改訂が繰り返され増殖していった。
English: "Kojiki," "Nihonshoki" and "Sendai Kujihongi" (ancient Japanese history) are koten sansho, and koten sansho added with "Kogo-shui" (history of the Inbe clan) is koten shisho.
Japanese: 『古事記』『日本書紀』『先代旧事本紀』（旧事紀）が古典三書、『古語拾遺』を加えて古典四書
English: The classification of 'koten shisho' (or koten sansho) is a classification for the sake of convenience in order to compare heretical chokodai monjo with legitimate Shinto scriptures
Japanese: この「古典四書」（または古典三書）という分類は、異端としての超古代文書に対して正統な神典としての比較対象のための便宜的な分類である。
English: Koten shisho' are not the so-called super-ancient documents (koshi koden) but instead four representative and basic literature were picked from the usual 'Shinto scriptures,' and therefore it is just another term for 'Shinto scriptures.'
Japanese: 「古典四書」はいわゆる超古代文書（古史古伝）ではなく、通常の「神典」から代表的・基本的な四書を出したもので、実質は「神典」の言い替えにすぎない。
English: (There have been various theories with respect to the scope of Shinto scriptures, but it usually includes "Manyoshu (literally, collection of 10,000 leaves)," "Fudoki (description of regional climate, culture, etc.)," "Shinsen Shojiroku (literally, newly compiled register of clan names and titles of nobility)" and so on.)
Japanese: （神典の範囲をどう定めるかは古来諸説があるが『万葉集』『風土記』『新撰姓氏録』などを含むことが多い）。
English: The"Sendai Kujihongi" has generally been judged as a gisho (psuedo-document) since the Edo period and Kiyohiko AGO was aware of this from the beginning.
Japanese: 『先代旧事本紀』は江戸時代以来、偽書であるとの評価が一般的であり、当然、吾郷清彦も最初からそれを認識していた。
English: However, he did not fully deny its value but appreciated it, since it had been deemed as the most important 'Shinto scripture' after to the Kiki (although notcomparable to the Kiki).
Japanese: しかしまた同時に、通説と同様に、その価値を全面否定はせず、記紀に次ぐ重要な「神典」とみなされてきた事実には変わりない、と（記紀ほどではないが）評価もしていたのである。
English: Other than this original Kujiki (ten-volume set), there are alternative versions ("Sendai Kujihongi Taiseikyo" (72-volume set), "Shirakawa Hon Kujiki" (30-volume set) and "Taiseikyo Sasakiden" (31-volume set)).
Japanese: この本来の旧事紀（十巻本）とは別に異本（『先代旧事本紀大成経』（72巻本）・『白河本旧事紀』（30巻本）・『大成経鷦鷯伝』（31巻本））もある。
English: Often it is asserted that they represent a kind of koshi koden.
Japanese: こちらは論者によっては古史古伝の一種とされることもありがちなのである。
English: Although chokodai monjo (= koshi koden) is a kind of 'gisho,' not all 'gisho' should be taken as koshi koden.
Japanese: しかし、超古代文書（＝古史古伝）は「偽書」の一種ではあっても、「偽書」のすべてが古史古伝かというとそれも疑問である。
English: Kiyohiko AGO introduced alternative books of "Kujiki" in his literary works, but he did not consider them to be koshi koden.
Japanese: 吾郷清彦はその著作の中で『旧事紀』の異本を紹介しながらもこれらを古史古伝とはしていないのである。
English: Similarly, there is a view that adds three books--"Tensho (also called 'Tenshoki')" (a chronological history of Japan), "Nihonkoku sofudoki" and "Zen-zen Taiheiki (a military story)"--as heretical ancient history books.
Japanese: 同様に『天書』（「天書紀」ともいう）・『日本国総風土記』・『前々太平記』の三書を異端古代史書として加える説もある。
English: Among them, "Tensho" isn't a koshi koden, and the other two contain nothing that would make them chokodai monjo.
Japanese: このうち『天書』は古史古伝の類とはいえず、他の二書も超古代文書というほどの内容をもっているわけではない。
English: These are similar books in the periphery of koten shisho and, although we may call them heretical ancient historic book similar to koshi koden, it is unreasonable to include them in chokodai monjo or koshi koden.
Japanese: これらは古典四書の周辺的な類書であり古史古伝に準ずる異端古代史書とはいえても、超古代文書だとか古史古伝そのものに入れるのは相当な無理がある。
English: (Also, there is a view in which "Shinsen Shojiroku" is interpreted as a chokodai shisho (super-ancient historic book). However, the interpretation may be considered super-ancient history but the text itself is not super-ancient history.)
Japanese: （また『新撰姓氏録』を超古代史書として解釈する説もある。これは解釈が超古代史なのであって本文そのものが超古代史なわけではない）
English: This 'koden shisho' is a classification based not strictly in accordance with their contents, but on their appearance in which whole sentences are written in the ancient Japanese characters.
Japanese: この「古伝四書」は全文が神代文字で書かれているという外見上の体裁による分類であって、内容に基づく分類ではない。
English: Three documents--"Futomani," "Hotsumatsutae" and "Mikasafumi"--are a series of documents belonging to the same system having the same view of the world, and therefore we can call them 'hotsuma-kei monjo (hotsuma system documents).'
Japanese: 『ホツマツタヱ』『ミカサフミ』とともにこの三書は世界観を同じくする同一体系内の一連の書であり「ホツマ系文書」ということができる。
English: Because this "Futomani" was easily confused with the common noun "futomani," Kiyohiko AGO called it "Kanwoshide motoura tsutae."
Japanese: この『フトマニ』は普通名詞の太占（ふとまに）と紛らわしいので吾郷清彦は『カンヲシデモトウラツタヱ』（神璽基兆伝）と名付けた。
English: Literature in kanji characters, "Kamuna hibiki" and "Ma no subeshi," which relate to Katakamuna, can be classified in one group 'Katakamuna system literature, but katakamuna system documents including katakamuna are not considered as 'history books.'
Japanese: またカタカムナに関係する『神名比備軌』（かむなひびき）や『間之統示』（まのすべし）という漢字文献も「カタカムナ系の文献」として一括できるが、これらカタカムナを含むカタカムナ系の諸文献は「歴史書」ではない。
English: Chokodai monjo = koshi kode' is a broad concept that includes documents other than history books.
Japanese: 「超古代文書＝古史古伝」は、このように歴史書以外をも含む幅広い概念である。
English: Koshi shisho' includes ancient Japanese characters, but its text is written only in kanji characters or kana mixed with kanji characters.
Japanese: 「古史四書」は神代文字をも伝えてはいるものの、本文は漢字のみまたは漢字仮名まじり文で書かれたもの。
English: The above-mentioned four titles (Kuki Shinden Seishi, Takeuchi Taikoshi, Fuji Takamagahara Chosi and Mononobe Hishi) were named independently by Kiyohiko AGO.
Japanese: 上記の四つのタイトル（九鬼神伝精史・竹内太古史・富士高天原朝史・物部秘史）は、吾郷清彦が独自に名付けたものである。
English: Among them, "Oshihinotsutae Tensonki" and "Shinto Genten" are not komonjo (old documents) or kobunken (old literature), but the former is a document written through automatism and the latter is a book of inspired by a visit to the spiritual world.
Japanese: このうち、『忍日伝天孫記』と『神道原典』は古文書・古文献ではなく、前者は自動書記、後者は霊界往来による霊感の書である。
English: As seen above, Kiyohiko AGO's concept of 'koshi koden (chokodai bunsho)' is a broad one that includes not only 'books handed down from ancient times,' but also 'books of modern times that brings information from super-ancient times through inspiration such as automatism.'
Japanese: このように吾郷清彦の「古史古伝」（超古代文書）という概念は「古代から伝わった書物」という意味だけでなく、「自動書記などの霊感によって超古代の情報をもたらす現代の書」まで含む幅広い概念である。
English: When AGO contributed to 'Atarashikisekaie (literally, to new world)' (published by Nippon CI Association), he added an item 'Toa Shisho.'
Japanese: 吾郷は「新しき世界へ」誌（日本CI協会刊）に寄稿した際「東亜四書」という項目を追加している。
English: "Chikusho Kinen" and "Bokutenshiden" were included but "Kozan Hokan" and "Hokan Henbunrui" were not included the initial conceptual stage.
Japanese: 構想段階では『香山宝巻』『宝巻変文類』がなく『竹書紀年』『穆天子伝』だった。
English: Since it is unreasonable to consider "Chikusho Kinen" and "Bokutenshiden" as koshi koden, his later works removed these two books and added "Kozan Hokan" and "Hokan Henbunrui."
Japanese: この両書を古史古伝だというのは無理があり、後の著作では『竹書紀年』『穆天子伝』をはずし『香山宝巻』『宝巻変文類』を入れた形で発表されている。
English: Although "Kozan Hokan" and "Hokan Henbunrui" were not known to the general public, but were known to specialists and some oppose considering them as chokodaishi bunsho (super-ancient history documents).
Japanese: しかし『香山宝巻』『宝巻変文類』は世間的には有名ではなかったが専門家の世界ではもとから知られたものであり、超古代史文書に入れるのは異論もある。
English: Some mention "Sankaikyo" and "Fujin Engi" as being related to East Asia, but "Sankaikyo"has been a famous classic for a long time and "Fujin Engi" is a novel.
Japanese: ほかに東アジアに関連するものとして『山海経』『封神演義』をあげる論者もいるが、『山海経』は古来有名な古典であり、一方『封神演義』は小説である。
English: It is unreasonable to consider these two books are koshi koden even if the content is interesting.
Japanese: いくら内容が面白いからといってもこの両書を古史古伝というのは無理がある。
English: "Nanensho" would be a chokodai monjo comparable to "Kittan Koden" and "Kandan Koki."
Japanese: それよりも『契丹古伝』や『桓檀古記』とならぶべき超古代文書といえば『南淵書』があげられる。
English: We can collectively refer to "Kandan Koki", together with similar books such as "Kien Shiwa" and "Danki Koshi", as being of the 'Dankun system literature group.'
Japanese: また『桓檀古記』は『癸園史話』や『檀奇古史』などの同系の書物とともに「檀君系文献群」として一括してよぶことができる。
English: OAHSPE, "The Book of Mormon" and "Akasha Chronicle" are not books handed down since ancient times but documents the revelation of God, inspiration or automatism but there is no problem in defining them as koshi koden as described above.
Japanese: 『OAHSPE』『モルモン経』『アカーシャ年代記』は古代から伝来した書物ではなく神の啓示とか、霊感や自動書記などになるものだが、それは古史古伝の定義上問題ないことは上述の通り。
English: Although the two works are fictional, there are some who believe they exist and in such case they become a kind of chokodai monjo.
Japanese: この両書は架空の書物だが、実在と信じる人もいるのでその場合は超古代文書の一種となる。
English: "Bisha Shinjiroku" is written in ancient Japanese characters and, according to the definition, it could be included in 'Koden shisho,' but Kiyohiko AGO didn't mention it.
Japanese: 『美杜神字録』は神代文字で書かれており定義からいえば「古伝四書」の方に入れてもよさそうではあるが、吾郷清彦はその件については特にふれていない。
English: Other than "Bisha Shinjiroku", the "Kai Kosekiko"is rich in regional flavor.
Japanese: 『美杜神字録』のように地方色豊かなものとしては他にも『甲斐古蹟考』がる。
English: Additionally, Minoru HARADA mentioned three books: "Masumi Tantosho," "Imiji Yuraiki" and "Kankansen Datsuroku."
Japanese: 原田実はさらに『真清探當證』（ますみたんとうしょう）・『伊未自由来記』（いみじ・ゆらいき）・『肯搆泉達録』（かんかんせんだつろく）の三書をあげている。
English: Kasuga Bunsho' is a document related to kotodama (spirit of language) so it is not a history book, but as with the above-mentioned Katakamuna, koshi koden may contain books other than history books.
Japanese: 「春日文書」は言霊（ことだま）関係の文献であり歴史書ではないが、古史古伝には歴史書以外も含みうるのは、上述のカタカムナの場合と同じである。
English: Other than those, it is said that there are 'Otomo Bunsho,' 'Abe Bunsho,' 'Inbe Bunsho,' 'Kiyohara Bunsho' and 'Kume Bunsho.'
Japanese: これらの他にも「大伴文書」「安倍文書」「斎部文書」「清原文書」「久米文書」などがあるともいわれる。
English: Takeuchi monjo (or Takenouchi monjo; also called Isohara monjo or Amatsukyo monjo) is the name for a number of documents written in ancient Japanese characters and include their translations in the form of manuscripts written in a mixture of kanji characters and katakana prepared by HEGURI no Matori, the grandson of TAKENOUCHI no Sukune, under the order of Emperor Buretsu and also inscriptions on stones, iron swords, etc.
Japanese: 竹内文書（たけうちもんじょ/たけのうちもんじょ。磯原文書、天津教文書ともいう）とは、神代文字で記された文書と、それを武烈天皇の勅命により武内宿禰（たけのうちのすくね）の孫の平群真鳥（へぐりのまとり）が漢字と片仮名交じり文に訳したとする写本群と、文字の刻んだ石、鉄剣など、一連の総称である。
English: They are the so-called koshi koden books and, because the original manuscripts themselves were lost in a fire or were not open to the public, they are deemed as 'gisho' (apocryphal documents) or 'gishi' (apocryphal history).
Japanese: いわゆる古史古伝の書物であり、写本自体が焼失もしくは非公開であるため、「偽書」「偽史」とされている。
English: Takeuchi bunken' (Takeuchi literature) is often used to cover not only books, but also shinpo (sacred treasure) as described below.
Japanese: 書物だけではなく、下記に述べる神宝の類まで包括して「竹内文献」ということが多い。
English: TAKEUCHI Kiyomaro (or TAKENOUCHI Kiyomaro), who professed himself to be an adopted child of the Takeuchi family which is said to be a descendant of HEGURI no Matori, announced the existence of monjo (documents) to the public on March 29, 1928.
Japanese: 平群真鳥の子孫であるとされる竹内家に、養子に入ったと自称する竹内巨麿（たけうちきよまろ/たけのうちきよまろ）が、昭和3年（1928年）3月29日に文書の存在を公開した。

Japanese: 写本の多くは焼失し失われているが、南朝(日本)系の古文献を再編したとされる写本もある。
English: According to Takeuchi monjo, the present reigning line starting from Emperor Jinmu is called 'Kamuyamato-cho' and it is said that, before that, there were 'joko (ancient times) twenty-five eras' (or, 'koto - imperial line - twenty-five eras') followed by 'seventy-three eras of the Ugaya Fukiaezu Dynasty' (the seventy-third emperor was Emperor Jinmu) and even before these there were 'seven Tenjin eras.'
Japanese: 竹内文書では神武天皇からはじまる現在の皇朝を「神倭朝（かむやまとちょう）」と呼び、これ以前に「上古25代」（または「皇統25代」）とそれに続く「ウガヤフキアエズ王朝（あえずちょう）73代」（73代目は神武天皇のことである）があり、さらにそれ以前に「天神7代」があったとしている。

English: The first emperor of Joko existed 317.5 billion years before Christ, even before the Big Bang occurred and the reign of the second emperor of Joko covers thirty-two billion years (although it is said that the name of the emperor of Joko was passed on to his successor and there were about fifty emperors per generation).
