A29 · AUGUST 2026 WORKING ENTRY

麽论大孝灵位

Mo lun · Great mourning and spirit tablets

Edition & evidence

This is the corrected August working catalogue, not a final physical bibliography. Later September re-readings are presented separately in the GSS research dossier. Dating candidates, locations, interpretations, and unresolved readings are preserved as distinct evidence layers.

The English commentary accompanies the preserved Chinese record. Quoted historical wording and unidentified characters are retained; candidate readings remain provisional.

Working tags

Administrative / geographical markers

Names and recorded roles

Nong Daotong (农道通), followed by 號 (hao).

Date as written

Not found in the available record.

Dating candidates in the August edition

Undetermined.

Dating rationale

There is no internal date. ‘Tuyên Quang province—Tương An / Tương Yên prefecture’ resembles an older administrative formula, but ritual texts can retain old place names for a long time. This cannot directly date the book.

Confidence in the August edition

Low.

Place formula as written

Đại Nam—Tuyên Quang province—Xiang'an prefecture as written (大南国宣光省襄安府).

Historical geography and its limits

Đại Nam → Tuyên Quang province → Tương An / Tương Yên prefecture (襄安/相安). This resembles an older administrative formula, but could also be textual memory retained later.

Analysis in the August edition

For now, this entry is best coded under: Administrative / geographical markers. Further analysis should first establish the location of inscriptions, ink colour and handwriting, and textual function, then compare independent materials. A single character form, state name, or divine name cannot establish provenance or the direction of transmission.

Evidence limits and unresolved readings

For now, claims extend only to a prefectural location formula and a name / designation inscription.
