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.

ROUTE STAGEKhwārizmian name horizon
algorism
approximately 780–850
The personal nisba al-Khwārizmī identifies the scholar through Khwārizm; this is an onomastic and regional stage, not a reconstructed lexical root.
1 EVIDENCE LINK
The interval locates the ninth-century scholar's lifetime horizon rather than the coinage of the place name.

Al-jabr appears in the title and method vocabulary of al-Khwārizmī's work.
1 EVIDENCE LINK
The treatise is conventionally dated around 825. The wider 800–850 window preserves that approximation.

Al-Khwārizmī worked in the Abbasid scholarly world; his name became attached to arithmetic transmission.

Al-Khwarizmi's Baghdad scholarly activity is placed only within the ninth century in this route model.

fīēn

Infinitive, present-participle, preterite, and past-participle records remain visible within the same bounded Alemannic evidence pocket.
1 EVIDENCE LINK
A dictionary-reported manuscript horizon rather than a claim that every cited record belongs to this entire century.

hazzōn
hazzōn source-reported in the ninth century
Starling prints the ōn citation form with a ninth-century label. The label bounds the current claim but does not establish the earliest surviving use.

AWB groups fixed phrases in which the old participial character may still shine through. They span multiple works and are not one innovation event.
2 EVIDENCE LINKS
A corpus interval for multiple source-reported records, not a first-use claim.

Bosworth–Toller locates ten edited occurrences, but this dossier did not inspect their manuscript objects or reduce their copying histories to one route.
1 EVIDENCE LINK
A conservative written-record interval; individual witnesses require object-level review before tighter dates or map points are justified.

ROUTE STAGEOld High German Tatian tradition
fīant
fiiant in T 72,2, 76,4, and 196,8
The Tatian records show ordinary enemy, parable enemy, Devil interpretation, and plural enemies. The text tradition is not reduced to a single manuscript-production coordinate.
2 EVIDENCE LINKS
A conservative text-tradition interval; no manuscript object was directly inspected.
AUDIT RECORD ↗830 CE–840 CErange
ROUTE STAGEOld Saxon Heliand textual horizon
hatōn
work created circa 830–840; place of poetic origin unknown
The Heliand supplies three of the dictionary’s four verb loci. A textual horizon is not a claim that every surviving copy was made at the composition place.
2 EVIDENCE LINKS
A work-level dating range distinct from the dates of the surviving manuscript objects.
AUDIT RECORD ↗830 CE–840 CErange
ROUTE STAGEOld Saxon Heliand textual horizon
heti

Heliand 1322 supplies one lexical occurrence transmitted by three reported manuscript witnesses. A text date is not a manuscript-copy date.
2 EVIDENCE LINKS
A work-level dating range distinct from the dates of the surviving objects.

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.
