As the records give it

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Founders

Named as founders

Who the records name as founding it.

What this means

An attribution, usually recorded long afterwards and often contested — not a claim that it began fully formed, or that everyone who belongs to it accepts the attribution. An order, a church or a dynasty named as founder is listed by name rather than drawn: an arch is for a likeness.

Where

Located in

The places its record gives — a location, not a claim about what happened there.

Located in, not held here: Rome

Connections

How Dominican Order connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

Affiliation 60

What this means

Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.

Does not imply personal belief at every point in a life · the practice of a population
