Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.A quoted passage from journals.plos.org was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: The paper links late-autumn olive pressing, winter livestock sheltering, and spring textile production to one seasonal industrial space. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The quoted passage directly supports the seasonal sequence of olive pressing in late autumn, livestock sheltering in winter, and textile production in spring, but it does not identify Tel Shiqmona or the 8th-century BCE date within the excerpt.

Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
