Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current 72-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Nova, Scotia and Trunk providing the first useful test.
