Structure

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

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:existenceDestructionEvent 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 destruction event when the existence claim is reified and the entity has ceased to exist.

Avoid when

• Avoid it on the flat form (use gmeow:hasDestructionEvent directly on the entity) and omit it entirely for a still-extant entity, whose existence record leaves the interval open.

How to use

• Assert gmeow:existenceDestructionEvent from the EntityExistence to a gmeow:Event co-typed with the appropriate EventType; leave it absent while the entity remains extant.

Examples

• ex:troyExistence gmeow:existenceDestructionEvent ex:sack.
