Research layer Sayburc notes
- Use reported wording where exact locus, phase, function, and feature counts remain open.
- Do not reduce Sayburç evidence to one settled myth, ritual, or domestic-only explanation.
- Keep domestic evidence and symbolic interpretation separate.
- Scene description and interpretation must stay separate.
