    3 The warfare and maneuverings among these Three Kingdoms gave rise to a colorful novel very loosely based in historical fact, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and to a major cult in late imperial popular religion, that to Lord Guan. If you are fan of the San Guo yanyi and want to see a less fanciful treatment of the period, take a look at the Chen Shou’s San guo zhi; or in English To Establish Peace (chapters 59- 69 of the Zizhi tongjian by Sima Guang), translated by Rafe de Crespigny and The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms (chapters 69-78 of the Zizhi tongjian), translated by Achilles Fang. There is a new study of Guan Yu and his cult by Barend ter Haar, Guan Yu: The Religious Afterlife of a Failed Hero.

    4 Yi Hyunhae, “The Formation and Development of the Samhan,” 51. For a revisionist view, see McBride, “Making and Remaking Silla Origins,” 536, 540: the first extant reference to Naemul “as a significant Silla ancestor” is in a stone inscription carved in 939. McBride acknowledges the influence of Mun Kyŏnghyŏn 文暻鉉, Sillasa yŏn’gu 新羅史硏究 (Taegu: Kyŏngbuk Taehakkyo Ch’ulp’anbu, 1983).
