    How to read this map

    Connections join located entries in chronological stages; other recorded places stay in the text. Dashed connections pass intervening stages without a map position. They do not document a travel route or continuous service.

    Entries within the same AH year are not ordered. Stages with more than one located locality remain unconnected; each source place stays visible.

    2 stops kept as text without a verified locality point. No provincial capital is substituted.

    Current collection salary comparison

    Dated AH salary records of the currently selected officials; undated evidence remains in the chronology.

    Relative pay percentileShare of other annual-entry officials paid less

    Use Enter, Space or ← / → on a salary point, or click the percentile panel to choose the nearest observed AH year. All yearly values appear below.

    Marks show observed AH years only; gaps remain blank and no line implies continuous pay or service. The reference range includes the focal official when they are in the sample.

    How the comparison is calculated

    One highest recorded salary per official and AH year. Same-year medians, nearest-rank 10th and 90th percentiles, and relative standing are recomputed from the selected collection.

    Amounts are nominal monthly kuruş in years with a recorded salary. Gaps are left blank; values are not adjusted for prices. Explicitly unpaid zero entries remain in the chronology and are omitted from logarithmic salary plots.
