This quarter is not mentioned in the Murašû texts, which could be explained by the possibility that the latter only provide names of the four quarters on the Westmound and therefore exclude East Nippur.

The šaknu, unlike the šandabakku, was a short-term position, designated for only a few years and recruited within the local citizens of Nippur, which makes it comparable to the chief of a haṭru.

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.
