2. I didn't want just a cataloging of the dead.

3. There's some rudimentary cataloging all that stuff, but it's like walking into the world's largest warehouse with boxes of gears and engine parts with no labels.

4. The polis also existed at a set of spaces, such a study must rise above the mere cataloging of buildings and on the classical side.
