## Original page text

```text
CUP appears as official list position 10 in the published word-search term list.

The term could not be located anywhere in the supplied 20 × 20 letter grid. The surrounding learning-resource content strongly suggests that CUP was intended to work conceptually with the separately listed term NORA as “NORA Cup.”
```

---

## Normalized archival summary

CUP is preserved as an official published term but documented as a known exception because it does not occur in the supplied grid and has no separate destination page or image.

---

## Puzzle verification

- **Verified match count:** 0
- The term was not located in the supplied grid.

---

## Critical verification findings

- Preserve the published list exactly. Do not add CUP to the grid, remove it from the list, or invent a separate destination page. Link conceptually to NORA only.
- No unique source image was supplied for CUP.
- Historical claims are preserved as statements made by the supplied learning-resource page unless separately verified in a future research audit.
