Iki no Hakatoko no Sho (伊吉博徳書, "The Document of Iki no Hakatoko") is a historical Japanese record written by Iki no Hakatoko. Composed late in the 7th century, the record is primarily known for being used as a reference in the composition of Nihon Shoki as well as for being the oldest Japanese travel record.[1] It is no longer extant.
While the record no longer exists, a fragment of its contents may be found in quotations. Passages are quoted four times in Nihon Shoki:[1][2]
The various quotations relate details about the Imperial Japanese embassies to China and foreign policy around the middle of the 7th century.
