開元釋教錄 3.9

3.9

Beginning with Fu Jian (posthumously titled Emperor Ming), in the first year of Huangshi, a xinhai year (351 CE), through to Fu Deng (without posthumous title), in the ninth year of Taichu, a jiawu year (394 CE), spanning a total of five rulers and forty-four years. There were six śramaṇas. The sūtras, vinayas, and śāstras translated by them total fifteen works, comprising one hundred and ninety-seven fascicles (among them, seven works in sixty-five fascicles are extant, and eight works in one hundred and thirty-two fascicles are lost texts. Fang states that the first year of Huangshi was jiayin and the first year of Yanchu was dingyou, which differs from the chronological tables of various houses; collating two years later according to Master Dao'an's Preface to the Ekottarika-āgama to verify its cyclical years, Fang's catalogue is mistaken).
