The use of coca in coastal Ecuadorian cultures is well documented in ancient iconography and artifacts traceable back to the Early Formative more than 4000 years ago through dental calculus.
“Usually associated with Andean cultures, the use of coca in coastal Ecuadorian cultures is well documented in ancient iconography and artifacts that can be traced back to the Early Formative more than 4000 years ago through the study of dental calculus (Klepinger, Kuhn, and Thomas 1977;Plowman 1984).”

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.
