'''Ars Arcanum''' (possibly latin for "Secret Arts" or "Book of Mysteries") is a glossary or appendix section at the end of the books that are part of the [[Cosmere]] universe. The information is presented from an in-universe perspective <ref name=bythesame> [http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=988 Are they all written by the same person?]</ref>.
For example, the books in the [[Mistborn trilogy]] each have an Ars Arcanum with the table of [[Metallic Arts]], describing what each of the [[Allomantic]] metals does. The Ars Arcanum in ''[[The Way of Kings]]'' tabulates the gemstones used in [[Vorinism]] and [[Soulcasting]].
All Ars Arcanum content is written by the same person <ref name=bythesame
