About

Dates are for founding, invention, first production or first recorded use, whichever is the honest answer for the thing in question. Anything not on the hand-checked list is resolved once against Wikipedia and Wikidata, cached, and served the same to everyone. Where a thing has no founding date because it is a species, an element, a mountain or an emotion, the page says so. This site does not log user data. Click here to learn more.
