SOURCES · PUBLIC REGISTER
Every claim should be able to return to its source.
This public index presents a curated selection of sources directly supporting the narratives already published. The complete research corpus is broader.
CORPUS · EDITORIAL STATUS
209 source records do not mean 209 sources are ready to publish.
The canonical index also preserves sources that still need a stronger witness, locator, rights review, or further checking. These statuses describe editorial readiness, not historical importance.
May support public publication after the corresponding editorial controls.
Kept available for research, but not yet promoted into the public narrative.
Need a stronger witness, original acquisition, rights work, locator, or further review.
The selection below presents 9 key sources chosen to show how the project works.
Curated selection: this is not yet the complete corpus catalogue. Original, reproduction, and derived evidence remain distinct.
Historical titles and quotations retain their original language. Editorial descriptions are available in every site language.
