The voyage catalogue records HALVE MAAN departing Texel on 06-04-1609.

What this does and does not establish

Petram, DAS Enriched Dataset V1.0, original/voyage.csv, file 615569; voyage 0133.1, physical line 151. Archival reconstruction; no logbook inspected. The note distinguishes the intended Northeast Passage expedition from a subsequent return to Dartmouth; neither replaces the departure fields. Its discovery claim is not adopted here.

Kind of record
Placed in a year. A source places this in one year. It is listed under that year; no day precision is invented.

How it is dated

Date reference
06-04-1609
How we use it
Year-level placement is limited to the dated source entry.

The date reference is this project’s reading of the source’s date. It may give an era name, a reign or a calendar in a normalised form rather than in the source’s own words; the dating notes say what the source prints.

Dating notes from the research record

Read the complete header at das.txt line 1 and full rows and notes at lines 145–157; searched HALVE MAAN for related entries. The departure date 06-04-1609 maps directly to AD 1609 at year precision; no calendar conversion asserted. Original quotation begins at line 151, character 44480. The calendar field applies only to the normalized CE year bounds. The catalogue gives no source calendar for this row. The selected March–November field is well inside the year in either contemporary Julian or Gregorian day reckoning. The original day and month are quoted as printed, without assigning them a style or converting them.

File names and line numbers in these notes, and in the limits above, refer to the project’s retained copies of the cited sources. Names such as calendar_headers are the project’s calendar look-ups, and “the investigator” is the research step that prepared the record.

Sources and quoted text

Line and character numbers under “Location” refer to the project’s retained copy of the source. For database rows, “Edition” names the batch of rows that was fetched together.
