Periods
In this section, historical periods are collected and presented in an interactive format. Users can explore the data through a dynamic timeline, making it easy to navigate and visualize the chronological relationships between different periods.
The periods are grouped into collections (item sets) that can be explored both individually and hierarchically, allowing for a more structured and flexible browsing experience.
The data for this section is sourced from PeriodO, a gazetteer dedicated to historical period definitions. Each item categorized under the class dc:period of time includes its source information, which is clearly indicated in the identifierfield. This approach ensures transparency and traceability for all referenced historical periods, allowing for more accurate and reliable exploration of cultural heritage data.
