The Record of Japan in the History of Wei simply refers to the death of Himiko as follows: "Himiko passed away, and a large mound was made that was more than 150 meters long. More than 100 slaves were killed and buried in order to follow their master." 魏志倭人伝には、卑弥呼の死については「卑彌呼以死 大作冢 徑百餘歩 ?葬者奴碑百餘人(卑弥呼は死に、直径100余歩の大きな塚が作られ、奴婢100余人が徇葬された)」とのみ書かれている。 |
