Dear All,
after discussion with Paola Ronzino, Achille Felicetti, George Bruseker,
Chrysoula Bekiari , Eleni Christaki
We propose:
A6 Group Declaration Event:
This class comprises interpretive activities that lead to identify two
or more instances of Stratigraphic Units (A8) and / or Physical Thing
(E18) that simultaneously exist at the time of this activity or at the
time of archaeological observations this activity refers to as source
and that are attributed to be the remains of one complete instance of
Physical Thing (E18) that had existed at a time of reference in the
past, such as two stratigraphic units (with no evident contact) cut
through by a ditch having been segments of the same original
stratigraphic unit, two or more surviving parts of a structure having
been segments of the same wall (B5), a number of postholes being the
indication of a past wooden house or a number of potsherds being
segments of the same original artefact.
Comments:
I suggest not to speak of "parts" in case of remains of pieces of
coherent matter as a result of destructive process. At the time we are
interested in, the object had no parts. It was one. However, the
structure at our hands formed a segment in the sense of Gerstl &
Pribenow (i.e., a constellation of matter with no natural boundaries
at the time the thing existed as a whole or at all, and no knowledge
of such boundaries prior to the destruction).
In first order logic, I'd put in a constraint that the STV of the
target thing has to be "before" the activity.
Best,
Martin
