Start with the thing you remember — then move through the graph.
Occupation, task, machine, material, industry, place, time, historical company and product name can each be the first reliable clue. This graph makes those relationships visible while keeping the evidence boundary visible too.
The graph now contains 396 explicit source-bounded relationships across occupation, task, equipment, material and industry nodes.
