Public-domain historical evidence, cautious modern linkage

Breton-Carib/Garifuna Research Atlas

Raymond Breton's 1665 and 1666 Island Carib records are presented as historical evidence for Garifuna language recovery. This is a review surface: it distinguishes source attestations, candidate matches, modern GLA links, restricted evidence counts, and repair queues.

Method

The atlas publishes evidence, not overconfident claims.

Breton's missionary-era orthography, OCR segmentation, Helsinki/OPUS English-Spanish draft meanings, modern Garifuna links, and restricted corpus sightings are kept in separate lanes. A record can be valuable as historical evidence even when it is not yet a modern Garifuna dictionary entry.
