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

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.
