modeling location-of or birth-place-of

Hi,

 

I’m trying to model the annotation of a resource for any sort of thing with a resource for a place, and it needs to allow for a valid time. Can’t see how so far, any ideas would be helpful.

 

For example, annotating a record for a person (target) with a record for a place (body). The person wasn’t always at the place, so the relation between them needs to include a valid date range somehow. Maybe restricting the relation to type, e.g. “birthplace,” or “created-at” in the case of a creative work.

 

The goal is descriptions of places that include all sorts of items that have been annotated as being located there, generally, but critically also for some date range.

 

thanks
