Abstract
After more than two hundred years of regular use in diplomatic exchanges between Indigenous and European nations across northeastern North America, wampum belts began to fall into disuse in the 19th century. Their history has followed a number of paths since their decline in political significance saw them move into private and museum collections. The study of wampum belts held in Quebec collections past and present has much to tell us about how objects that are intrinsically collective in nature ended up moving from their original communities to museums. They also demonstrate how non-Indigenous private collectors imposed new meanings and uses on wampum, to the detriment of the original meanings woven into them by their first owners.

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 it
