This sourceFoundational archival-science text establishing the principle that unbroken custody is the basis of archival authenticity, and that any single break in the custody chain compromises the evidentiary value of the entire record.

- Provenance
- This brittleness makes provenance expensive and sometimes impossible for long historical chains, a fragility Jenkinson (1922) anticipated in his foundational manual on archive administration and the principle of unbroken custody.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
