Summary
AI identifies systemic anomalies in classical texts, revealing structural contradictions between Bronze Age reality and later Hellenic/Roman narratives. The study challenges the traditional 'harmonizing paradigm' by using a Four-Tier Epistemic Demarcation Matrix to filter mechanical errors, literary tropes, and detect three classes of anomalies: geographic inconsistencies (sparagmós), stratigraphic anachronisms, and informational silencing. Validated through archaeometric proxies like radiocarbon dating and dendrochronology, the model demonstrates that North African fleets' reliance on Sardinian-Corsican timber during the Late Bronze Age was logistically absolute, as evidenced by macro-botanical remains at Su Nuraxi di Barumini and Nuraghe Arrubiu. This approach shifts focus from textual correction to uncovering historical 'fault lines' obscured by imperial rewritings.
