Index
The three-volume index is separated by type of entry. The first ("upper") volume contains a supplement containing entries not included in the writing of the original volumes, as well as indexes for historical events (shiryô) and place names (chimei). The second volume is an index of people's names (jinmei), and volume three is an index for "topics" (jikô). Each index entry (which are listed in kanji) contains the volume number, page, and line on which the term appears, as well as the title of the entry under which it appears.
