Thanks, Elayne for this report. In the wake of that set of error messages, could you now check whether some (or most) of your term lists now appear? There's a comment in the code that ingests term lists <https://github.com/collectionspace/application/commit/5dc6e8708cb7845be46bccaa1a5c3eee8aaf95fc#diff-293d6dc4013575e74e370b2eca05b31fR139> that claims that this error may just mean that the creation of one or more term lists, or items in term lists, that have non-unique identifying names has been blocked. And from a quick look there, it appears that CollectionSpace *will* go on to create all of the other term lists, and items in those lists, that don't have that issue ... If you are seeing term lists created successfully (one way to quickly check - select the Administration tab, then Term List Management tab, and click on the names of several of the term lists at left), we can then work with you further to help identify the non-unique names.
