Abstract
architect's duties (328), bathing activities (190), and Pliny's work ethics .Moreover, despite the abundance of high-quality images, many of them seem unconnected to the text: the famous inscription preserving Augustus's posthumous account of his accomplishments (not his will, as the caption reads, I72) is illustrated without further comment (17o-71); the map known as the Tabula• Peutingeriana is shown as proof for the extent of Rome's eastern empire (94-95); and a wall painting from the Boscoreale villa is used to illustrate a theatrical set (41).Most surprising of all is the author's own observation: "If one were to comb through ancient literature to find references to writers' book collections and libraries and collate them logically, making rational deductions from the information available, one would conclude that nearly all writers and men of letters -and others too -possessed some kind of library, large or small" (200).If this were truly the aim of this study, the results, ironically, fall far short of their mark.In the end, it might be hoped that a reader who encounters this book will become sufficiently interested in the topic to seek out other more successful (and accessible) studies.3

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.
