The linked authority identifier is Q10346134. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1990.
Later fame can flatten the distinction between original context, subsequent adaptation and institutional collecting history. 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.
