Repository truth posture

• Repository: bijux-pollenomics
• Primary domains: pollen_context, environmental_context
• Contextual domains: archaeology_context, boundary_framing, fieldwork_record, ancient_dna_context, publication_outputs
• Overall recovery posture: recovery_required

Counts

• Tracked paper count: 18
• Papers with archived supplements: 18
• Published animal atlas points: 170
• Unresolved animal samples: 402 of 1450
• Refused animal coordinate-provenance rows: 4 of 308
• Source-family explainer count: 15

Claim Freeze Reasons

• tracked animal samples still include unresolved locality assignments
• animal coordinate provenance still includes refused or unpublished rows
• RAÄ density remains refused until source inventory and qualified review reconcile

Recovery Priorities

• archive missing supplementary material and convert it into sample-owned locality and chronology evidence
• rebuild animal locality extraction so sample rows do not collapse into project-level or region-level geography
• rebuild chronology extraction so atlas and country outputs stop depending on broad or unresolved sample dates
• keep pollen, environmental, archaeology, and boundary explanation first-class while animal aDNA recovery continues

Do Not Repeat

• do not treat checked-in JSON file count as scientific progress
• do not let public atlas presence stand in for sample-owned locality and chronology evidence
• do not narrow the repository mission to one thin recovery slice
• do not present internal publication accounting as if it were evidence depth
• do not call weak or partial animal aDNA coverage region-agnostic or broadly ready
