Trust Block
- Evidence: linked MWS timeline and dictionary-profile notes.
- Limitations: dates are historical orientation for dictionary evidence, not exact diachronic dating of Sanskrit usage.
- Validation: checked by
npm run build; source references should be reviewed before paper-final use. - Owner repo:
csl-atlas. - Next use: use the timeline for orientation, then verify claims in dictionary profiles or source-linked records.
