Principle
A claim is not accepted unless it is anchored to primary evidence. If a modern narrative is not tied to a specific tablet or document, it is labeled as an allegation.
What Counts as Evidence
- A primary cuneiform tablet or artifact record
- A published edition or transliteration tied to that tablet
- Museum or excavation documentation
- For suppression or shutdown claims: court orders, agency records, or contemporaneous press
Current Status
No modern “elixir” narratives have been verified against the Sumerian primary texts currently in the archive.
Next Steps
- Log modern narratives as secondary sources once collected.
- Map each claim to a primary artifact or mark it unverified.
- Reject claims that rely on non-primary sources or missing provenance.
