Great Zimbabwe participated in broader Indian Ocean circulation networks, receiving commodities from Arabia, India, Indonesia, and China and exporting gold, ivory, and cloth.
“Beyond African commodities, Great Zimbabwe participated in broader networks of circulation that incorporated the Indian Ocean rim.Such circulation brought variable quantities of commodities from the Arabian Peninsula, the Indian subcontinent, Indonesia, and China to Great Zimbabwe and took commodities such as gold, ivory, and cloth from the state to these other world areas (Chirikure 2014).”

Prestige is culturally and contextually specific and is not associated just with exotics.
“prestige is “in the eye of the beholder”; it is culturally and contextually specific and is not associated just with exotics (Chirikure 2014).”

Seemingly exotic materials may have been exchanged as gifts, so attributing them to trade requires caution.
“it is essential to exercise extreme caution before attributing all seemingly exotic materials such as a single glass bead, a piece of Chinese celadon, or a fragment of Islamic fritware to trade, even in regions with no productive capacity of their own, since they may have been exchanged as gifts (Chirikure 2014).”

The circulation of commodities within state and nonstate societies took place at individual, interhousehold, and intercommunity levels, and wherever needs, wants, and supply and demand intersected.
“The circulation of commodities within state (e.g., Mutapa and Torwa-Changamire) and nonstate societies (e.g., Njanja) took place at individual, interhousehold, and intercommunity levels, and wherever needs, wants, and supply and demand intersected (Chirikure 2014;Moffett and Chirikure 2016).”

The status of imports in the historical period was variable.
“Examples from the historical period suggest that the status of imports-symbolic and otherwise-in the historical period was variable (Chirikure 2014;Moffett and Chirikure 2016).”

Ownership of cattle and land, and possession of coveted knowledge, were more predictable sources of prestige and value than exotics.
“It was recently demonstrated that ownership of cattle and land, previously dismissed as a source of social power as well as possession of coveted knowledge, were more predictable sources of prestige and value than exotics (Chirikure 2014).”

When compared to fixed Portuguese redistribution centers such as Dambarare, Great Zimbabwe yielded modest amounts of imports such as porcelain and glass beads.

The capillary nature of the political economy of Great Zimbabwe promoted equal access to imports for individuals and households across social strata.
“The capillary nature of the political economy of Great Zimbabwe promoted equal access to imports for individuals and households across social strata, which explains why exotics have been found in elite and commoner households at Great Zimbabwe and beyond (Chirikure 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
