Description
Two Greek corpora seated on the originals shelf: Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica (Perseus tlg0001, 5,898 lines), and Hesiod, Theogony, Works and Days and Shield (Perseus tlg0020, 2,382 lines). Both were fetched and stored on 29 August 2026 for Round 33 of the authorship investigation, to characterise the distance-inheritance class, and were never indexed, deposited or shelved; the numbers they were stored under (12/02, 12/03) were later assigned to Strabo by EA-CORPORA-12. This deposit gathers them under their own card numbers, 16/01 and 16/02, with the opening of every work verified in the seated bytes.
Wiki Article
EA-CORPORA-16 seats two Greek corpora on the archive's originals shelf: Apollonius Rhodius's Argonautica and Hesiod's Theogony, Works and Days and Shield, from the Perseus canonical Greek editions at a pinned commit. Both were fetched on 29 August 2026 for Round 33 of the authorship investigation, to characterise inheritance across a distance of centuries, and were stored without being indexed, deposited or shelved; the numbers they were stored under were later given to Strabo. Round 33 reclassed Homer to Apollonius from a neutral distance control to a constructed lineage — a later poet claiming epic descent — and refuted the lexical battery the seats were stored for. The seating gathers them under their own card numbers, 16/01 and 16/02, with the opening line of each of the four works verified in the seated bytes.
They were fetched on 29 August for Round 33, to measure the distance-inheritance class on the same nine-feature battery used for direct master-student pairs: Homer to Apollonius as roughly five centuries with no possible contact, Hesiod as the same-period alternative source. Round 33 itself changed the frame. On MANUS's caution that constructed lineage is the oldest move in the book, Homer to Apollonius was reclassed from a neutral distance control to a distant constructed lineage — the Alexandrian poet claiming epic descent — and the battery was refuted in the same round (#1569, #1570). The seats' own why_seated is kept as written at storing, with the later ruling beside it.
The numbers
Stored as 12/02 and 12/03 before EA-CORPORA-12 was deposited. That deposit gave 12/02 to Strabo, and these two were never indexed, deposited or shelved under any number: stored, not published, in the archive's own terms. They are seated here as 16/01 and 16/02, and each seat record carries the old number, the new one and the reason.
