In volume 9 of Nihonshoki, the description on Princess of China and Princess of Wa (Japan) "According to a record keeper of Jjin Dynasty of China, the Empress of Japan paid a tribute to the Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty on October, 266" was quoted; and there is a theory that the tradition was made up in order to link "Himiko" (first known ruler of Japan) with Yamato dynasty/Yamato (Imperial) Court, in editing the document.
日本書紀において巻九に神功皇后摂政「66年是年晋武帝泰初二年晉起居注云武帝泰初（泰始）二年十月倭女王遣重貢獻」と中国と倭の女王の記述が引用されており、収録するにあたってヤマト王権と「卑弥呼」を関連づけさせる為に伝承が作り上げられたという説がある。
