- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/names - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
Relates a geographic gmeow:Place to a structured gmeow:PlaceName (toponym) it bears; the place-scoped specialization of gmeow:hasAppellation, mirroring gmeow:hasName for persons. Non-functional — a place bears many co-equal names (endonym/exonym, multilingual, historical); none is primary, and superseded ones set gmeow:displayable false. The structured, first-class replacement for the retired flat gmeow:alternateName literal.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to bear a structured toponym on a geographic place — an endonym, exonym, multilingual, or historical name; the place-scoped mirror of
gmeow:hasName.
Avoid when
- Avoid the retired flat gmeow:alternateName literal and avoid privileging one toponym as primary — names are co-equal; carry period and toponymic authority by promoting to a
gmeow:PlaceNaming, and set superseded namesgmeow:displayablefalse.
How to use
- Assert one
hasPlaceNametriple per co-equalgmeow:PlaceName; tag endonym/exonym withgmeow:namePurposeon the name, and reify to agmeow:PlaceNamingwhen authority or interval must be borne.
Examples
- ex:istanbul
gmeow:hasPlaceNameex:istanbulName, ex:constantinopleName.
