My chief opinions in this Paper are as follows:—
(1) I assume that the context of "Saikyu-ki" quoted in "Seiji-yoryaku" is the most early and exact context of "'Saikyu-ki" which was published by Minamotono Takaakira.
(2) It is obvious that the present published "Saikyu-ki" is not the original context by Minamotono Takaakira, but the partly or wholelly rearranged or revised by some one.
(3) I would like to survey that the statement in "Nosaki-hobeiryobo" (especially in Kinryo-jussho) shows obviously the differences between Saikyu-ki in the old context and in the present existing context. There-fore, we can assume the range of the date during which the differences occurred, using these different contexts as the key to solve the problem.
(4) In this way, we can say that ten mausolea in "Saikyu-ki" in the old context are all as the same as those in the age from December, the eighth year of Tenryaku (954) to December, the first year of Koho (964).
(5) Therefore, from the above description, we can say that the context of "Saikyu-ki" concerned with the ten mausolea was written during the ten years mentioned above, that is to say, in the forties of Dainagon Takaakira.
(6) From the above point of view, it is also necessary to recognize that though "Seiji-yoryaku" was compiled twenty years after the death of Takaakira, this "Seiji-yoryaku" faithfully quoted the original context of "Saikyu-ki" which had been written before the first year of Koho.
(7) On the other side, the ten mausolea in "Saikyu-ki" of the present published context coincide with those of the year from December, the first year of Kanna (985) to December, the eighth year of Kanko (1011)
(8) Therefore, the above concerned part of "Saikyu-ki" of the present published context was rewritten according to the actual circumstances of those day, I assume.
