Class: PERSON

E21-CIDOC - This class comprises real persons who live or are assumed to have lived. Legendary figures that may have existed, such as Ulysses and King Arthur, fall into this class if the documentation refers to them as historical figures. In cases where doubt exists as to whether several persons are in fact identical, multiple instances can be created and linked to indicate their relationship. The CRM does not propose a specific form to support reasoning about possible identity. ++Philosurfical : The class has no slots in CIDOC. We added the gender slot, which has no associated event; the has-social-role slot, cause it's not something we want to record as an event (even if it would be possible), but just a property useful for classifying thinkers; the dates/places of birth/death are shortcuts, cause often we do not want to model the birth/death events for everybody, but still want some basic info about it. In the case of philosophers, in fact, this is not needed cause people do not usually dispute these information, but more their intellectual subscriptions. ****TO DO ****However, sometimes we are interested in modeling such events, so we need to construct an axiom which establishes the priority of one or the other information, or the inference of the existence of an event, from the value of the person slots.
