The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1932, 1968—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1932-10-10. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with José, Maria and Pereira providing the first useful test.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 2, 2026.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
