After introducing the symogih.org project’s patterns-based ontology approach, we’ll analyse the role that factual information plays in the process of historical knowledge production. We’ll then develop an epistemological and semantic analysis of conceptual data modelling based on the foundational ontologies Constructive Descriptions and Situations and DOLCE, and discuss the reasons for adopting the CIDOC CRM as a core ontology in the field of historical research. === The FAIR principles === * Wilkinson, Mark D., Michel Dumontier, Ijsbrand Jan Aalbersberg, Gabrielle Appleton, Myles Axton, Arie Baak, Niklas Blomberg, et al. “[[https://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618|The FAIR Guiding Principles for Scientific Data Management and Stewardship]].” Scientific Data 3 (March 15, 2016): 160018. * Go FAIR – [[https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/|FAIR Principles]] === Ontology === * [Staab 2009] Steffen Staab, ed. //Handbook on ontologies//, 2nd ed.

Although there are significant intersections between the two fields of cultural heritage preservation in museums and historical research, the CRM has to be extended with some relevant, missing high-level classes in order to meet the needs of the latter. Furthermore, there is a need to enrich the ontology with the modelling patterns required for the fine-grained data production in all the different fields of historical research, and notably in prosopography. We will see how collaborative data modelling carried out in the ontology management environment OntoME makes it possible to elaborate a communal and adaptive conceptualization of the domain. * [[https://ontome.dataforhistory.org/classes-tree|Ontology Management Environment]] – OntoME * [[http://dataforhistory.org/|Data for History]] (Mailing list - Forum - Community meetings) * Francesco Beretta, Vincent Alamercery, Sebastiaan Derks, Lodewijk Petram, Jonas Schneider.
