Most "Wei Zhi" commentators accept the "Yémǎtái" (邪馬臺) transcription in later texts and dismiss this original word "yi" "one" (the anti-forgery character variant for "one") as a miscopy, or perhaps a naming taboo avoidance, of "tai" "platform; terrace." This history describes ancient Wa based upon detailed reports of 3rd-century Chinese envoys who traveled throughout the Japanese archipelago:Going south by water for twenty days, one comes to the country of Toma, where the official is called "mimi" and his lieutenant, "miminari". Here there are about fifty thousand households. Then going toward the south, one arrives at the country of Yamadai, where a Queen holds her court. journey takes ten days by water and one month by land. Among the officials there are the "ikima" and, next in rank, the "mimasho"; then the "mimagushi", then the "nakato". There are probably more than seventy thousands households. (115, tr. Tsunoda 1951:9)
