Using the data
The data is published under CC BY 4.0. Please credit “LTTE Archive” and link to the record you use.
Casualty figures are given as the lowest and highest figures cited by the archive's sources (killed_low, killed_high). They are not estimates made by the archive, and they are never averaged.
Coverage is limited to published records. An incident missing from the file has not yet been documented here; it does not mean it did not happen.
