, alternatively known as ''Kuni tsu Fumi'' and literally meaning "National Record", is a historical text purported to have been written in 620 by Shōtoku Taishi and Soga no Umako. It is recorded in the ''Nihon Shoki'', but there are no known extant copies. Assuming that it did in fact exist, it would predate both the ''Kojiki'' (712) and the ''Nihon Shoki'' (720). According to the ''Nihon Shoki'', On this year, Hitsugi no Miko and Shima no Ōomi worked together on ''Tennōki'' and ''Kokki'', composing the true history of the various court nobles.〔Sakamoto, Tarō ''et al.'' (1965). ''Nihon Koten Bungaku Taikei: Nihon Shoki,'' p. 203.〕 During the Isshi Incident in 645, the residence of Soga no Emishi (a successor of Soga no Umako) was burned down. The ''Nihon Shoki'' records that the ''Kokki'' burned along with the ''Tennōki'', but the ''Kokki'' was saved before being destroyed. On the thirteenth day as Soga no Emishi was about to be killed, flames burned the ''Tennōki'', ''Kokki'', and treasures. Fune no Fubitoesaka quickly grabbed the burning ''Kokki'' and presented it to Naka no Ōe.〔Sakamoto, p. 264.〕 However, this copy or its remains did not apparently survive. On November 13, 2005, the remains of Soga no Iruka's residence were discovered in Nara, supporting the description found in ''Nihon Shoki''.〔 〕 Researchers speculate whether parts of the ''Tennōki'' or ''Kokki'' may be found. ==See also== * Historiography of Japan 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kokki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
