10. GeoDia data model: relational data jammed into a flat database
Period term, Culture Time start/end
prefixes and (e.g. “Greek”) (e.g. “start: 1000 BC;
suffixes end: 800 BC”)
(e.g. “Iron Age”)
Period
(e.g. “Early” + “Iron Age” + “I” + “Greek” + “1000-
Stylistic 950 BC” + “Greece/The Aegean”)

connectivity rather

12. The PeriodO model for a period assertion

13. Chersonesos and its ARK interface: a context record

14. Chersonesos and its ARK interface: a small-find record

15. Chersonesos and its ARK interface: a scan of an illustration of that small
find, living on the servers of the Texas Advanced Computing Center in an
iRODS instance

16. Metadata automatically extracted from files related to Chersonesos ARK
records, during iRODS ingest (basis for RCATs proposal)
