ARCHIVE SUMMARY

Magician appears mainly through literary retellings and later adaptations, so the archive records how the figure was repeated and reshaped rather than a direct encounter sequence. The accepted archive contains 11 records from 1842–1897. The largest coded regional group is Western Australia (3), and the largest source group is Project Gutenberg (8). These distributions describe archive coverage, not real-world incidence.
