1 recorded place within the site, from their own records.

Site history & evidence

What is documented here

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

Evidence On record What it shows
Site date None recorded The import holds no date for the site itself.
Location Recorded 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 Merv, and when, is a separate claim, and this import holds none: it carries site locations, not dated activity.

Connections

How Merv connects

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