Main unresolved issue: 2 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:35647a3e-4455-84aa-a4fa-990917bc1f1e

Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.Every quoted passage was confirmed on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: The abstract says recalibrated radiocarbon dates place Mizyn figurines among Europe’s earliest post-glacial anthropomorphic images. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The quoted passage directly states that recalibrated radiocarbon dates place Mizyn figurines among Europe’s earliest post-Last-Glacial-Maximum anthropomorphic images and that the artefacts suggest an independent Palaeolithic stylistic phenomenon.

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.

Used as a premise in

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.

Claim edges

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