Thank you. I will consider creating relationship objects instead. From a UI 
perspective (for the use case I was trying to solve for) I feel it is more 
straightforward to enter reifiable data over creating a new relationship object 
--> saving the form --> and then clicking into the new object to add the 
associated data.

Thanks again. I always appreciate learning best practices and recommendations 
to improve my modeling.

Yes, only one level is supported.

The general alternative to using reification is to introduce relationship 
objects, lifting the reification info into the main ontology. Some people argue 
that reification should not be used when it is really the representation of a 
relationship. Instead, it should only be used for cases like provenance of 
triples and other true metadata.

Hello,

Is there a limit to how "deep" reifiable statements can go?

I have a class with a property that has a node shape it is reifiable by. Within 
the node shape I would like to add another layer making one of my properties 
reifiable by yet another node shape. It does not appear that the shape within 
the shape is working.

First "layer" on the class: (this one works)
<performed by.JPG>
And this is the layer (a node shape on a node shape) that is not working:
<performed by shape.JPG>

Thanks in advance for any clarification you may have to explain what I should 
be expecting.
