As the records give it
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.
