A55 · AUGUST 2026 WORKING ENTRY

凶事麽送乙卷

Mo rites for inauspicious events · Volume B

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

Zhuang writing · Five-syllable lines · Daoist material · Explicit date

Names and recorded roles

Huang Daoyuan (黄道源), followed by 字 (zi).

Date as written

Republic year 29, gengyin (庚寅), sixth month, day 6; copying finished. The original formula 民国29年庚寅六月初六抄毕 is retained, including its potential dating conflict.

Dating candidates in the August edition

1940.

Dating rationale

The August working analysis states that Republic year 29 and gengyin both correspond to 1940. This is the source's assertion, retained here for comparison; see the separate dating-check note below.

Confidence in the August edition

High.

Place formula as written

Not found in the available record.

Historical geography and its limits

The available record contains no place names suitable for reconstructing an administrative hierarchy. Provenance is not inferred from the style of the contents.

Textual features

Five-syllable Zhuang writing coexists with Daoist ritual symbols.

Analysis in the August edition

For now, this entry is best coded under: Zhuang writing · Five-syllable lines · Daoist material · Explicit date. 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

The same-name relationship with A53 requires verification; a name alone does not establish the same person.

Original working transcription · Chinese source

Retained verbatim for comparison. This is the researcher’s transcription, not a verified edition of the complete manuscript.
