This would be in the time range to be part of the historical record.
This isn't the one described in some Chinese annals, is it?

No. That would be the supernova of 1054, which is today's Crab Nebula.

the one described in some Chinese annals It would be tough to find an explicit record of this one, but it could have been noticed and been entered into the spoken tradition--mythology. The event was probably too far away to have had a significant effect aside from being visible.
