Other places tied to Émile Benveniste in the record
In each of these, a source puts Émile Benveniste and the place in the same dated sentence without stating
that Émile Benveniste was there. They are kept apart from the timeline above for exactly that reason:
a mention is not a presence, and Quo Fuit does not quietly promote one into the other.
1926 to 1935period
École pratique des hautes étudesmentioned“After serving as an infantryman in the Rif War from 1926 to 1927 (despite personal opposition to the war), he would return to the École pratique des hautes études in 1927 as a director of studies, and would receive his doctorate there in…”source: Wikipedia: Émile Benveniste

Two people documented in the same place in the same year is a correlation, not a meeting.
Quo Fuit will never say they met without a source that says so.
How to read this page
Every line above is a dated fact taken from a source, with the sentence it came from and a link
back to it. Nothing is inferred, and a gap in the record is not evidence that someone was elsewhere.
A tag says how the fact is carried by its source: documented a structured,
explicitly dated record, attested a sentence that states the person was there,
mentioned a sentence that ties the person to the place without stating presence.
