So, in the ontology, we will end up having both Activity and QualifiedInvolvement as domain of the hadTemporalValue property - pushing PROV-O outside of RL). Probably easier to just express this outside PROV: > > ex:MonaLisa ex:creationEstimate "1503-1519" . > > Yes, in effect stating that only Activity can be associated with Time. Thanks.
