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.

Analysis in the August edition
For now, this entry is best coded under: Three Kingdoms narratives · Possible mixed Zhuang–Nôm writing · Separate male and female sections · Possible performance text. 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
‘Possibly a Zhuang theatre script’ remains a research hypothesis requiring further support from role names, sung-section formats, and performance vocabulary.

三国志交争：甲岁寅戌年七月廿九日抄完；本书没有太多别的信息，然后可以比较明显地看出来，这一本书可能是壮字和喃字混合写的记录三国时期的故事；然后这本书的前面一半有男和女的分部区别，所以可能可以参考，这会是某一种戏剧，比如说壮戏的，剧本
