Mingei Ontology

This repository contains the **Craft Ontology (CrO)** developed in the [Mingei project](http://www.mingei-project.eu) to represent the knowledge collected about heritage crafts, including  narratives collected about these crafts.

CrO is provided as an [OWL](https://www.w3.org/OWL/) ontology using the [Turtle syntax](https://www.w3.org/TR/turtle/).

CrO is an application ontology obtained by integrating several existing ontologies, notably:
*	[CIDOC CRM](http://www.cidoc-crm.org), a top ontology and an ISO standard forming the conceptual backbone of the CrO
*	[Narrative Ontology](http://dlnarratives.eu/ontology.html), a domain ontology focused on the representation of narratives
*	[FRBRoo](http://www.cidoc-crm.org/frbroo/home-0), a domain ontology for bibliographic records, resulting from the harmonization of FRBR with CRM
*	[OWL Time](https://www.w3.org/TR/owl-time/), a domain ontology recommended by W3C for the representation of time [OWL Time]
*	[Dublin Core](https://dublincore.org), for simple resource description
