The house of Arad-Gula was situated down the hill near the bank of the Mid-City-Canal, the nowadays dried out Shatt en-Nīl canal, which separates the mounds of Nippur in its two main recognizable parts.
“For this purpose, it was for sure useful that the house of this Arad-Gula was situated down the hill near the bank of the Mid-City-Canal, the nowadays dried out Shatt en-Nīl canal, which separates the mounds of Nippur in its two main recognizable parts (Schneider 2022).”

In “Interpretation and Some Further Remarks” (page not provided), Schneider identifies the present-day Shatt en-Nil wadi with an ancient canal and says it separates Nippur’s two main parts. The paper does not locate Arad-Gula’s house down the hill or near the canal bank; its mention of Arad-Gula in “Political Instrumentalization of the Sanctuary” concerns a dossier, not the house’s location. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredInstead of the Nergal gate depicted on the city map, the Murašû texts mention a gate of Ninurta, which would support an identification of the location of the Ninurta temple at the northern part of Westmound.
“Instead of the Nergal gate which is depicted on the city map, the Murašû texts mention a gate of Ninurta (sum.KÁ(.GAL) LUGAL.(GU 4 .)SI.SÁ) which would support an identification of the location of the Ninurta temple at the northern part of 'Westmound' (Oelsner and Stein 2011: 106;Schneider 2022).”

The section “Conclusions Concerning the Site of the Temple of Ninurta” favors a location on the northern Westmound, possibly Mound I. Our copy does not substantiate the claimed contrast between a Nergal gate on the city map and a Ninurta gate in the Murašû texts; searches for those gates and the Murašû texts found no such passage. Page numbers were not available in the indexed passages. (LLM, conf=0.86)

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.
