ADDRESSES.
Trace where a word’s reviewed history passed through—and see every broad, global, or uncertain stage that cannot honestly be reduced to one point.
A ROUTE IS A MODEL.
NOT A GPS TRACE.
Regional pins locate reviewed cultural stages. Approximate pins locate broad reconstructed or contact regions. Global stages stay unpinned. Every route preserves its full editorial sequence; only directly cited, explicitly bounded stages also enter the cross-word Timeline Atlas.
231 coordinate pairs exist; global placements are suppressed.
Broad, global, uncertain, or not honestly reducible to one point.
1324 claim-level citations; every remaining stage is a frontier task.
Source-backed stages now join the cross-word Timeline Atlas.
Historic labels remain readable without being parsed into false years.

WHERE DID THE WORD GO?
Filters select complete word journeys when any stage matches. The map and route card then preserve the surrounding stages, so a search result never becomes a historically amputated dot.
THE REVIEWED GEOGRAPHIC LAYER
HATIS ON THE MAP
This is not a GPS trace. Lines appear only when adjacent stages in one selected route both have defensible points. A global stage is not pinned even when a legacy coordinate names the route’s point of departure. Missing locations break the line.

hatis
OPEN DOSSIER ↗- 01*hatiz-NO SINGLE PIN
Proto-Germanic linguistic horizon
The Gothic noun, i-stem Old English hete and Old Saxon heti, and the wider Germanic cognate set support a comparative noun base without licensing one archaeological point or directly written Proto-Germanic token.
2 DIRECT CITATIONS ↗ - 02hatis in Gothic biblical vocabularyNO SINGLE PIN
Fourth-century Gothic translation tradition
Fourteen of the fifteen reported tokens belong to the Gothic Bible tradition. Their Greek alignment reveals translation choices but does not date the first use of the noun in speech.
2 DIRECT CITATIONS ↗ - 03early-sixth-century Codex Argenteus witnessregional placement
Ravenna
The directly inspected Luke 3:7 hatiza occurs in the purple-vellum Gospel codex probably copied in Ravenna. The remaining source-reported tokens survive in other Gothic witnesses and are not silently assigned to this object.
4 DIRECT CITATIONS ↗ - 04sixteenth-century Codex Argenteus custodyapproximate placement
Werden, Ruhr district
The directly inspected codex was known in the sixteenth century at a Benedictine monastery in Werden. This is the route of one evidence object, not proof that spoken Gothic traveled with it.
1 DIRECT CITATIONS ↗ - 05imperial custody by 1600 to 1648regional placement
Prague
By 1600 the Codex Argenteus was in Prague in the hands of Emperor Rudolph II; Swedish forces took it when they stormed the city in 1648.

Stockholm
The codex reached Stockholm as spoil of war and entered Queen Christina’s library before passing to Isaac Vossius.

Holland custody
Vossius took the manuscript to Holland; Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie later bought it and presented it to Uppsala University.
1 DIRECT CITATIONS ↗ - 08custody since 1669regional placement
Uppsala University Library
De la Gardie presented the codex to Uppsala University in 1669. The modern facsimile exposes folio 129r, while Project Wulfila links the wider Gothic corpus inventory.

Knowledge boundary
The proposed Indo-European and Celtic comparisons remain visible, but no single hate, wrath, grief, care, pain, or anxiety origin is promoted.

WHAT THIS MAP CAN AND CANNOT CLAIM
GEOGRAPHIC HONESTY IS PART OF THE DATA.
A defensible cultural or linguistic region can be plotted, but the point summarizes an area rather than an exact address.
A reconstructed homeland or contact zone is placed only as a broad visual orientation and uses a distinct dashed marker.
A distributed network, era, or world language has no honest single coordinate. It remains in the sequence and off the map.
Directly cited stages may carry exact, range, century, circa, open, or before bounds. Unbounded prose stays unparsed.
959 stages have claim-level citations and 578 have defensible numeric bounds. Every uncited or unbounded stage remains visible unfinished work.
