Usage Advice

Use when

• Use in whole-rooted projections that traverse from a larger period down to its constituents — the natural direction when the enclosing era is the subject.

Avoid when

• Avoid asserting it directly when gmeow:periodPartOf already states the nesting; prefer the part→whole direction and read this as its inverse to keep one authoritative assertion.

How to use

• Let it follow by inversion from gmeow:periodPartOf; it specializes gmeow:hasPart so generic whole-to-part consumers see period decomposition uniformly.

Examples

• ex:quaternary gmeow:periodContainsPeriod ex:holocene.
