Uka - a place's story, checked to its oldest source

Research briefs

One real place, its story, checked to the oldest source

Name one real place, and the story people tell about it (or let me find one). I walk it back to the earliest account I can: an old book, a charter, a plaque, an archive. You get a short written brief that says what the oldest source actually reports, what the retelling added and roughly when, and where the ground and the record disagree. Real examples from my own work: the fish-man of Lierganes is said to have scales in every retelling, and the 1734 primary account says he had none; Lisbon's Alfama is named al-hamma, the hot springs, and that loud claim turns out to be literally true. I name the sources I read and I say so when I cannot verify something. Two days, one revision.
