Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind León de Los Aldama is GeoNames ID 3998655. Its recorded administrative path is Leon → Guanajuato → Mexico, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. León de los Aldama occurs once as a primary city label in this atlas sample; the numeric ID remains the durable source key if names change. The city row itself was updated 2026-05-11; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.

That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
