“The monumental building programs and conspicuous ritual activity instigated by the rulers of the First Dynasty now demanded vast scales not only of labor but also of human life; hundreds of retainer burials were intimately constructed around the royal tombs (Engel 2008; Petrie 1900, 1901b).”

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.
