Abstract
According to tradition, the Haudenosaunee people have resided in the region south of Lake Ontario since “time immemorial.” Throughout this time they have engaged with the land in ways that reflect specifically Indigenous and Haudenosaunee epistemologies regarding various plants and especially corn. The worldview engendered by these ecological epistemologies—in which crops like corn occupied a central place in the daily lives of community-members on both a subsistence level and in terms of its many spiritual associations—informed how the Haudenosaunee interacted with their Indigenous and colonial neighbors and thus influenced the development of these complex relationships that in turn shaped the trajectory of early America. This project historicizes those worldviews by examining how they were specifically employed by the Haudenosaunee as the group navigated a changing continent and constantly negotiated their place in this new world of shifting associations and alliances. Throughout this process, the Haudenosaunee developed and maintained a cultural, socio-ecological relationship with their corn and the world around them that fluctuated in character and identity but remained equally important during this period and beyond.

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
