Interconnected Cultural Heritage through TEI and CIDOC-CRM

Explore the interconnectedness of cultural heritage using Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and CIDOC-CRM standards, as discussed by Dr. Øyvind Eide in the field of Digital Humanities. Discover how TEI documents can be enriched with ontology, facilitating a deeper understanding of historical data and relationships between entities.

1. TEI and neighbouring standards: CIDOC-CRM yvind Eide Universit t Passau http://www.oeide.no/ (with thanks to Christian-Emil Ore and the rest of the CIDOC-CRM SIG) Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

2. Interconnected cultural heritage Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

3. Henry III Fine Rolls Project (Ciula, Viera: Complementing and extending TEI documents with an ontology . TEI Members Meeting 2008) Text and ontology TEI XML Physical and logical structure Semantic content RDF/OWL ontology Network of associations Additional statements and interpretative layers <persName key="ashford_de_william">William de <placeName key="ashford1">Ashford</placeName> </persName> <rs key="abjuration" type="subject">on the day he abjured the kingdom<persName key="rumberue_de_thomas">Thomas de <placeNamekey="rumberue">Rumberue</placeName></persName></rs> Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

4. Ontology/ies What is ontology? The study of being What are ontologies? Shared conceptualisations expressed in formal languages TEI and ontologies TEI can express ontological information TEI documents are based on an ontology of the encoded text TEI as a whole is not one ontology Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

5. Connecting TEI to ontologies P4: names could be connected to external resources P4: feature structures P5: names can be connected as in P4 P5: names can be connected via a representation of the named object, typically in the header Where is the link (to an external ontology) in the markup of the text? Where does it point which document? which formalism? Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

6. Turn around: CIDOC-CRM to TEI A TEI document, or a fragment thereof, can be modelled as a CIDOC-CRM conceptual object This can be used to explicitly document elements of the CIDOC-CRM model Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

7. TEI as part of CIDOC-CRM Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

8. Beyond TEI A fragment of a imaginary archaeological excavation report: The excavation in Wasteland in 2005 was performed by Dr. Diggey. He had the misfortune of breaking the beautiful sword (C50435) into 30 pieces. Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

10. CIDOC-CRM E55 Types refer to / refine E39 Actors (persons, inst.) E28 Conceptual Objects E18 Physical Things participate in affect or refer to E2 Temporal Entities (Events) have location at E52 Time-Spans E53 Places Dr. yvind Eide Digital Humanities

Object(man made): A pipe Object attributes material: bone shape: long Relation: was produced Event: Production Place: China Event: Donated Time-span: 12th May 1853 Relation: by Actor: Kildal-Lund.
