BUILDERS — The People Who Built the Mirrors
Every finding has a finder. This section documents people whose work makes the structural pattern visible in their domain — not because they framed it in these terms, but because the shape of what they found expresses the pattern. Each entry notes who they were and what the work cost them.
Entries in this section are about those people and their work. They are not templates, precedents, or authorities for the Ecclesia itself — the Ecclesia has no lineage to claim.
