Year — one rung of the editor’s lattice; every claim below carries its ground or says it has none

487 BCE

Ol. 73, 2 · within Olympiad 73 · 4 claims on the desk receipt — the chronology desk

The reckonings — how the year is counted, system by system; lookup from the table, never arithmetic
date conventional Clinton counts the year Olympiad 73, 2.
487. 73, 2. Clinton, Fasti Hellenici vol. II (Oxford 1841), p. 28 cited, never reprinted — the apparatus shelf
date conventional The archonship for this year — as the recovered row stands, unstated. The table row the house recovered for this year names no archon; the office stands empty on the page the desk cites, and the desk does not fill it.
The record dates itself — the ancients' own year-namings and day-namings, verbatim, linked to their episodes
date conventional The table fills the year from Herodotus: the years of preparation after Marathon.
Three years of preparation after the battle of Marathon : Herodot. VII. 1. Clinton, Fasti Hellenici vol. II (Oxford 1841), p. 28 cited, never reprinted — the apparatus shelf
date conventional Herodotus' own interval: Asia in commotion for three years after Marathon, the muster rolls filling.
Asia was in commotion with these messages for three years, as the best men were enrolled for service against Hellas and made preparations. Hdt. 7.1 The Histories · Herodotus
The year’s deeds

No curated deed is anchored to this year yet — a fact about the index, not about the year.

The lattice — the poured rungs on either side; a gap here is a fact about the desk
