Title
Kogo Shûi
古語拾遺
Text A work presented by Imbe Hironari to Emperor Heizei in 807. Contains commentaries on ancient words and practices and material omitted from the Kojiki and Nihon shoki. The author also states his opinions about Ise no Jingû and Atsuta Jingû, about the position of his own clan in relation to the Nakatomi clan, and about the position of the Nakatomi clan in relation to other clans. Although it focuses on accounts handed down in the Imbe clan, it contains many items worthy of attention.
