has creation event

• CURIE: gmeow:hasCreationEvent
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/hasCreationEvent
• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/lifecycle
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

Links an entity to the event that brought it into existence — the general form of birth (person), founding (organization), minting (currency), or realization (reference frame). Non-functional: competing standpoint-indexed creation claims coexist, none privileged. A Person's birth event is ALSO typed gmeow:eventTypeBirth (co-equal value, not a subclass).

Structure

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

Practical Pattern

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

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use for the flat 80% case — linking any entity to the event that brought it into existence (birth, founding, minting, realization) without reifying the existence claim.

Avoid when

• Avoid when the creation claim is itself contested, needs evidence, or must be standpoint-indexed (promote to gmeow:EntityExistence with gmeow:existenceCreationEvent) and avoid forcing one event — keep it non-functional so competing claims coexist.

How to use

• Assert gmeow:hasCreationEvent from the entity to a gmeow:Event and co-type that event with the right EventType value (gmeow:eventTypeBirth, founding, …); reify to gmeow:EntityExistence only when the claim itself needs standpoint or evidence.

Examples

• ex:lillith gmeow:hasCreationEvent ex:lillithBirth. ex:lillithBirth a gmeow:Event; gmeow:hasEventType gmeow:eventTypeBirth.
