THE TIMELINE ATLAS
JOURNEY ATLAS ↗FORM / ROUTE / BOUND
1398 REVIEWED EVENTSLANGUAGE
IN TIME.
One cross-word chronology for every defensibly bounded form and journey stage—without converting a vague historical label into a fake year.
A reviewed graph bound, not a claim of an earliest human word.
Only stages with directly cited numeric bounds enter this atlas.
Labels remain visible in Journey Atlas, but not parsed into false years.

FILTER THE CHRONOLOGY
WHEN DID THE EVIDENCE LAND?
TWO CLOCKS.
NO FALSE PRECISION.
FORM CHRONOLOGY dates a canonical linguistic form or reconstruction in the lexical graph.
ROUTE CHRONOLOGY dates a geographic or transmission stage in a word’s journey.
They can share an era band, but they are never silently treated as the same kind of claim.

liufs
4th-century translation
The Gothic gospel translation belongs to the fourth century, although the surviving Codex Argenteus was copied later.

The century dates the translation tradition described by Uppsala University, not the surviving manuscript object.
AUDIT RECORD ↗300 CE–399 CEcentury

hatjan
hatjan represented by hatjandam
The surviving verse belongs to the Gothic Gospel translation tradition associated with Wulfila. The fourth-century translation date is distinct from the age of the surviving manuscript.
2 EVIDENCE LINKS

hatis
hatis in Gothic biblical vocabulary
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 EVIDENCE LINKS
The century dates the translation tradition, not the exact moment the noun entered Gothic or acquired any particular sense.

hatan
hatan represented by two participles
Luke 1:71 and Luke 6:27 belong to the Gothic Gospel translation tradition. Their lexical swap reveals translation behavior but does not date the first spoken use or prove that the construction was newly coined.

The century dates the translation tradition, not the exact moment hatan entered Gothic or acquired a particular construction.

fijan
fijan and fijands translation system
The surviving corpus reflects a translation tradition in which the verb, productive participle, and inherited enemy noun overlap. The 42-token inventory does not equal all Gothic usage.
3 EVIDENCE LINKS
The century dates the translation tradition rather than each surviving manuscript or the birth of the lexeme.

fijands
fijands noun beside productive fijan participles
Gothic retained both the inherited enemy noun and the live one-who-hates participle; 21 surviving candidates remain shared between them.

hatizōn
hatizōn represented by hatizoþ in John 7:23
The fourth-century translation selects the class-II verb for Greek χολᾶτε. The translation horizon is distinct from the age of the surviving manuscript and does not prove when the verb was first formed.
3 EVIDENCE LINKS
The century dates the Gothic translation tradition, not the exact first use or derivation.

AUDIT RECORD ↗UNBOUNDED IS
A REAL RESULT.
Stages without source-backed numeric bounds stay in their complete Journey Atlas route, carry an explicit temporal note, and remain absent here until the evidence supports normalization. The missing point is visible work—not permission to guess.
