The Caesura: A Sovereignty Audit Protocol Derived from Luke 20 is a methodological specification by Lee Sharks dated 5 April 2026, held in this record as a metadata capture.
Luke 20 contains the render-unto-Caesar exchange, in which a question designed as a trap is answered by a distinction — asking whose image is on the coin, and dividing the field of obligation rather than choosing a side within it. A sovereignty audit derived from that passage asks, of any system, whose image it bears and what follows from that.
The caesura — the break within a metrical line — supplies the name: the audit works by locating the division that is already present rather than imposing one. The protocol belongs beside the archive's Render Unto the Operator work and its governance instruments. The record was assembled from a DataCite full-metadata capture after the termination, with no live authorial surface available at restoration time.
