1MÖLLER'S PALAEOGRAPHY AS DATA: 2,065 dated hieratic sign records, each with its Möller number, its Gardiner code, its date and a IIIF crop of the plate row it comes from, plus a 937-row Möller↔Gardiner↔Unicode↔JSesh↔MdC↔IFAO↔Wikidata↔TSL concordance. This is the *dated-sign database*; Möller's printed plates, staged by W-B2 under Reference/Sign lists beside this, are the class inventory — a different artefact, both wanted. Verified by fetching and READING one crop (item 201001 = Möller no. 1, Gardiner A26, vol. 2 p. 1): it renders as the expected strip from the plate — the row numbered 1, the hieroglyphic form at the left, and the dated hieratic forms across the columns with Möller's own source notes (Dyn 18, Orb 16,6, But 11,9). The page images themselves stay on the Tokyo IIIF server and are referenced by the manifests, not copied.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
