The first use of the character for "go" is in the Kojiki (Records of Ancient Matters), which dates to 712.
Other articles about go also appeared in the Fudoki (Gazetteers), which are records of different provinces in ancient Japan, the first of which was compiled in 713, and Kaifuso (Fond Recollections of Poetry), compiled in 751.
Go also appears in such famous literary works of the Heian period (794-1192) as: the Kokin Wakashu (Collection of Old and New Japanese Poetry), compiled by the famous poet Ki no Tsurayuki; The Tale of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu; and The Pillow Book of Sei Shonagon.

The corpus of tanabata poetry in the Manyoshu and Kaifuso, two collections of poetry composed during the Nara period, is surprisingly large.
Several such poems, including a well-known cycle of poems attributed to Kakinomoto Hitomaro, strongly suggest that the observance of the tanabata festival in the Japanese islands predated the Nara period (KOJIMA 1975, 2: 1120-1153, WATASE 1999, 30-49).
