Was The the Home of Stephen Blucke The Excavation of AkDi-23, Birchtown, Shelburne County (Curatorial Report #93)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Birchtown, Nova Scotia, was founded by Black Loyalists in 1783 and was the largest and most significant settlement of free Blacks in North America. Although its population grew rapidly, Birchtown did not thrive. The discrimination and inequity the Black Loyalists had hoped to escape followed them to Nova Scotia. In 1791 their discontent led half of Birchtown's population to join the exodus for Sierra Leone in West Africa, an event from which the settlement would never recover. This report describes the 1998 excavation of what is believed to have been the house of Colonel Stephen Blucke, the man who led the Black Loyalists to Birchtown. _____________________________________________________________________ Please note: This resource is presented as originally published.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
