Section 16 — Academic References and Books to Acquire

CANON SUBORDINATION — this document is PROPOSAL-TIER: it serves canon and never outranks it.
The canon: the CVD · the T1 foundation docs · the T0 registries (registries/) · the spine
(docs/spine/CH_*.md) · the region pages (_source/02_Tier_2_Region_Pages/). Authority order: docs/DOC_MAP.md § 0.
Canon served (scanned from this document's own citations — widen it by hand where it is thin):
T0_Character_Index
READ THAT CANON FIRST — open it and derive from it before you build anything from this document.
If this document disagrees with canon, CANON WINS and this document is the defect — fix the
document, never the canon. Nothing here is applied until it is ratified into canon.

Every citation carries its use_class (SUBSTRATE · ESOTERIC-PRIMARY · AUTHORIAL-REBUTTAL ·

REFERENCE · TONE · DUPLICATE · FRINGE-SKIP). Book-substrate citations arrive via the query layer with SRC_

ids, region-filtered (query_substrate --region bali); the corpus_query_log trail rides the page.

Region-scoping stays a correctness requirement rather than a convenience: the bali shelf now holds

four processed sources spanning evidence tiers that run from a trade-press ethnography to a

peer-reviewed genetics paper, and an unfiltered query mixes an ethnographer's first-hand Balinese

fieldwork with a conservation-genetics dataset that carries no cultural content at all. The two are

both true and both usable, and they are usable for different things — which is what the rest of

this section fixes in writing.

Processed substrate (in the corpus now)

Four sources are processed, deep-read and audited on this shelf. All four are declared here; the

Region Identity block's processed-source line owes the same four ids, and Section 20's session plan

owes the two additions.

apex-fauna anchor: the Bali tiger's island-wide range and forest habitat, the sister Javan tiger,

and the historical extirpation drivers (Dutch colonial sport-hunting plus agricultural and road

fragmentation), which back the CR_0017 roster row and the chapter's thriving pre-fragmentation

~1200 CE state [SRC: SRC_00482] · SUBSTRATE

106(3):247-257 (2015) — the peer-reviewed authority that GOVERNS every taxonomic and

extinction-dating claim on this shelf, places the Bali tiger inside a monophyletic Sunda-Islands

clade with its Javan and Sumatran kin, and supplies the SCIENCE_GROUNDING L3 lane (Sunda-Shelf

land bridges, coalescence dating, the museum-specimen trail) [SRC: SRC_00496] · REFERENCE

The use_class split between the two tiger sources is deliberate and is the honest reading of what

each one can do on the page. SRC_00482 is SUBSTRATE because its content is the animal in its

landscape — range, forest habitat, prey, the pressures that eventually removed it — which is

material a player of the ~1200 CE frame can walk through. SRC_00496 is REFERENCE because its

content is a laboratory result: a phylogeny recovered from museum skins in 2015. It has no

era-present investigable surface, its record honestly carries no civilizational marks, and its work

here is governance and authorial grounding, not in-frame play. The two body facts it lends the

CR_0017 roster row — the Bali tiger's smaller overall size beside its Javan sister

[SRC: SRC_00496, p. 252] and a roughly five-year generation with ungulate-prey dependence

[SRC: SRC_00496, p. 255] — enter as reference-backed enrichment of a substrate row, never as

something the chapter's player deduces.

Evidence tiers, and which source governs what

author relays general Indological knowledge from outside his own fieldwork, are the weaker half

expert-compiled, ICOMOS-evaluated, and citing peer-reviewed work throughout. It is strong on the

engineering and governance record and is the page's best anchor for the subak system. The

evidence-tier vocabulary has no member for this class yet; the gap is recorded, not invented past.

range, habitat and extirpation is uncontroversial and matches the specialist literature; what is

dated is its taxonomy, which uses the classical eight-or-nine-subspecies scheme.

question, SRC_00496 wins: all Sunda-island tigers now resolve to one recent lineage differing by

only one or two nucleotides [SRC: SRC_00496, p. 247, p. 252], so the separate-subspecies status

must never be presented as current science. Nothing on the page breaks — "Bali tiger" as the

island's own apex, and the historically-used balica binomial, remain entirely legitimate for a

~1200 CE frame and for CR_0017.

Two governing facts fall out of that and bind every section that touches the tiger or the island's

biogeography:

SRC_00482 names it among "the Sunda Islands (Sumatra, Java, Bali and Borneo)"

[SRC: SRC_00482, p. 7], and SRC_00496 grounds the same point genetically in the repeated

Pleistocene land bridges that joined Bali, Java and Sumatra as recently as the Last Glacial

Maximum [SRC: SRC_00496, p. 248, p. 253]. Bali is not a Wallacea island; Flores is. One harvested

rationale asserted otherwise and the audit corrected it against its own source, so no section of

this page repeats it in any form. What relation the two islands do bear to one another is the

link-graph lane's question to answer, and this section leaves it there rather than settling it in

prose.

statement into a false one: last confirmed record 1937 (the 1930s in the genetics literature

[SRC: SRC_00496, p. 255]); gone from the wild by the end of the 1940s [SRC: SRC_00482, p. 5;

SRC: SRC_00496, p. 247]. Section 3's existing 1937 anchor stands and gains the second date beside

it. The Javan sister ran on to a last reliable sighting in 1976 and is treated as extinct in the

1980s [SRC: SRC_00496, p. 247, p. 255] — a cross-pipeline fact offered to the Ch-5 Java owners,

never authored onto their canon from here.

Citation-anchor conventions (verified, not assumed)

Each source numbers its pages differently, and every one of the four was verified chunk-by-chunk

against the stored text during audit. Builders citing these sources use the conventions below;

citing a raw PDF index instead of the printed page is the single most common provenance defect on

this shelf and it has already produced anchor drift in two of the four records (SRC_00251 and

SRC_00482).

thirteen. Eight anchors resolve exactly across all four row classes and are the shelf's verified

spine: p. 2 (rwa bineda), p. 8 (kori agung, bhoma, candi bentar), p. 62 (Kala Rauh, the churning,

Tirtha Amertha), p. 147 (balian practice), p. 152 (keris metallurgy and the earliest firm relief

evidence), p. 250 (Uluwatu among the sad kahyangan; Rudra), p. 296 (the Barong drama fragment),

p. 307 (the panasar). The record's page_coverage is null, so an anchor outside this verified set

is checked before it ships.

shared water obligation, the multi-subak congregations, the Lansing and Miller footnote), II-54

(the Bebetin A I AD 896 undagi aungan tunnel engineers), II-65 (the "haji lumah ing jalu"

inscription), II-71 (Raffles 1811 and the Liefrinck/Montesquieu quotation). Every claim is

genuinely attested; only the anchors moved.

"p. 2" anchor in the harvest is a PDF index and resolves to the bulletin cover. The article opens

on printed p. 3, which is where both binomials are named.

One consumption rule rides with these. SRC_00482's own description of Bali's rich volcanic slopes

[SRC: SRC_00482, p. 5] is about IRRIGATION, and its monsoon-forest phrasing on the following page

is about east Java. What it says of Bali tiger habitat is "the large blocks of forested land that

was the home of tigers in the island" [SRC: SRC_00482, p. 5], and that is the sentence to cite. The

Agung-watershed monsoon forest stays the chapter's setting on Section 1's own terrain authority; it

simply is not sourced to this bulletin.

MUST-ACQUIRE (specialist primary anchors not yet in the corpus)

§17.1-critical source for the never-villainized guardrail. Pass-2 did not reduce this need. It

raised it: the harvest's own comparative far ends (the Durga descent, the calonarang material,

the balance-trial handling) are exactly the claims resting on the weakest evidence tier on the

shelf, and Section 20 continues to gate build-readiness on this acquisition.

tracking loop's field craft — pugmarks, scrapes, cached ungulate kills, scent-marking — is

attested by neither tiger record. SRC_00496 supports body size, generation time and prey

dependence and nothing about tracking behaviour; SRC_00482 supports range and habitat. The loop

is sound and the underlying sign is well documented elsewhere, but the rewards-intelligence

pillar promises real science exactly here, so the minigame spec is grounded before it is built.

and grounds a volcanic-catastrophe register only; it is never asserted as a Balinese event, and

Agung is never presented as Toba-class.

Leiden that carry the Bali haplotype but are recorded only as Indonesian or unknown in origin,

Shanghai, St Petersburg and private New York specimens in the same table hold Javan and Sumatran

transmission, and the recovery routes through Manukaya's own priests and custodians; the

1920s decipherment stays authorial and design-layer provenance.

What this section does not carry

The gate rule this section holds itself to runs both ways: no SRC id appears here that is not cited

in a body section, and no source cited in a body section is absent here. SRC_00157 and SRC_00251

are already carried across the body. The two additions are queued to the sections that own their

material — SRC_00482 and SRC_00496 to Section 3's fauna register and to Section 13's observation

loop, with the modern-strata beats queued to Section 19 — and this section cannot see whether those

sections took them, so the assembly pass verifies both directions rather than assuming them. Books

named as MUST-ACQUIRE carry no SRC id by design — they are not in the corpus, and inventing an id

for an unowned book would make the query layer lie. Where the harvest proposed a

controlled-vocabulary member the project has not ratified — an evidence-tier value for

institutional grey literature, a link-type for common-descent fauna relations, a quest_type for any

of the loops these sources feed — this page records the gap and writes around it. Those are rulings

pending, and a reference section is the last place to resolve one by using it.
