Site history & evidence

Each kind of evidence on its own row, because they do not add up.

Evidence	On record	What it shows
Site date	Dated from 1050 CE On the timeline	A date for the site as recorded — not a date of worship there.
Location	Recorded to the site On the atlas	A coordinate for the place. It locates the site; it does not draw its extent.
Dated activity	None recorded	A pin is a place, not an event. What happened at Cahokia, and when, is a separate claim, and this import holds none: it carries site locations, not dated activity.

Connections

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