Limitations and assumptions

  • Roman dates and titles vary by period, locality, inclusive counting, intercalation, titulature, damaged text, and scholarly reconstruction. Consular and regnal conversions require an authoritative chronological table and explicit uncertainty.
  • Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Alternative or Complementary approaches

Retain the photograph, squeeze or scan, diplomatic transcription, provenance, dimensions, uncertainty marks, and corpus identifiers with the result. Confirm ambiguous cases against the relevant corpus, Leiden conventions, parallel inscriptions, and specialist judgment.
