Dear All,

In the October SIG Meeting, the following arguments were made:

"Gerald Hiebel would prefer A7 Embedding as a S20. One point in the argumentation may be, that the surrounding matter of an Embedding has a specific condition is often used to determine parameters like the time of deposition"

I support this.

"What we loose when we define it as S20:

“It further allows for specifying temporal bounds for which a particular embedding has existed, as specified by the evidence. Maybe we could create a property e.g. was embedded for (instead of AP20?) that relates to a time span to be able to state temporal bounds of the embedding. If we define A7 as S20 we would not really need a property AP20 embedded at as it is already a E53 Place that we could attach spatial information to."

Counterargument: A Rigid Physical Feature has a genesis event, that allows for specifying the time of embedding. No extra property needed.

The property AP20 is necessary, because "This property identifies the E53 <#_E53_Place_1> Place that is documented as the E53 <#_E53_Place_1> Place of the A7 <#_A7_Embedding> Embedding. This place must be at rest relative to the instance of A2 <#_A2_Stratigraphic_Volume> Stratigraphic Volume Unit that contains the A7 <#_A7_Embedding> Embedding."

I believe the relation to the stratigraphic unit would be quite cumbersome to make otherwise.

Best,

Martin
