Class: PHYSICAL-OBJECT

E19 - CIDOC - This class comprises items of a material nature that are units for documentation and have physical boundaries that separate them completely in an objective way from other objects. The class also includes all aggregates of objects made for functional purposes of whatever kind, independent of physical coherence, such as a set of chessmen. Typically, instances of E19 Physical Object can be moved (if not too heavy). In some contexts, such objects, except for aggregates, are also called 'bona fide objects' (Smith-Varzi, 2000, pp.401-420), i.e. naturally defined objects. ++Philosurfical: two locations slots have been omitted - the inherited has-location seems to be enough. Is-identified-by and has-preferred-identifier have been moved down to man-made-object
