Shared beards

Grey beard is not an attribute—it is the default apostolic costume.

At a glance

Why comparison is a separate skill

Individual modules teach apostles in isolation, but museums present them in competition—six grey beards with codices, two Johns, two Jameses, brother pairs with similar nets. Comparative logic is the skill that turns isolated recall into gallery-ready reading.

What Module H delivers

You will rehearse decision trees for Peter versus John, Evangelist versus Baptist, and the bearded-book crowd algorithm. Each drill assumes you already know individual attributes from Modules B through G.

Error taxonomy

Most errors cluster into four families: brother pairs (Peter/Andrew), name collision (two Johns), homonym saints (two Jameses), and generic book apostles (Matthew/John/Peter without visible animal or keys).

Decision-tree habit

Train to ask: strongest attribute? age coding? evangelist animal? scene title? in that order every time.
