Muhabere Memuru · adana · 380 kuruş monthly

First work is separately recorded at AH 1285 (1868–1869) in Urfa. The first-salary field is 380 kuruş; it is not a dated point on this curve.

Monthly nominal assigned amounts, not confirmed cash payments. Lines connect consecutive AH years only; hollow points mean salary not recorded. Competing entries in one AH year remain separate points, without a unique pay-change line. Gregorian spans describe whole AH years; source Gregorian labels remain separate evidence.
