+There may be situations where certain graphs may want a more exact data type
than what Python will allow as a language.
+To support these situations `gremlin-python` has a few special type classes
that can be imported from `statics`. They
+include:

+[source,python]
+----
+from gremlin_python.statics import long # Java long
+from gremlin_python.statics import timestamp # Java timestamp
+from gremlin_python.statics import SingleByte # Java byte type
+from gremlin_python.statics import SingleChar # Java char type
