“The study of languages, scripts and symbols was a thriving field which appeared to provide new perspectives on the histories of nations, and this pursuit-like antiquarian studies at the time in general-was not without mystical and esoteric dimensions (e.g. ˚ Akerman 1991, 110-12; Håkansson 2014, 307-62; Stolzenberg 2013, 19-23; see also Nagel 2011; Wood 2008).”

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.
