Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:EntityExistence -> gmeow:Event

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:existenceCreationEvent from gmeow:EntityExistence to gmeow:Event when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:EntityExistence, gmeow:Event

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use on an EntityExistence to name its creation event when the existence claim is reified and the bringing-into-being is known.

Avoid when

• Avoid it on the flat form (use gmeow:hasCreationEvent directly on the entity) and do not require it — an existence record may carry only an interval when the creation event is unknown.

How to use

• Assert gmeow:existenceCreationEvent from the EntityExistence to a gmeow:Event co-typed with the appropriate EventType; pair with gmeow:existenceDestructionEvent and the interval to complete the reified record.

Examples

• ex:troyExistence gmeow:existenceCreationEvent ex:founding.
