The article text says "from the late 8th to early 19th centuries". But the infobox says "700s to 1900s" for time period. If the article text is correct, the infobox should say "700s to 1800s". If the infobox is correct, then the article text should say "late 8th to early 20th centuries". ~2026-47027-34 (talk) 23:29, 14 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Done Yes, good spot. The text is cited in detail so 1800s it is. 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 11:45, 15 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
