Man'yōshū

[Trollhattan]

This is a compliation of oldest existing Japanese poetry.

According to wiki-source,the collection contains poems ranging from A.D. 347 ( poems #85-89) through 759 ( #4516 ) with the bulk of them representing the period after 600.

My question is are poems#85-89 calligraphed on mokkan ( 木簡 ) and any verse replica available to public access online.

TIA
