It proposes a way of preserving the integrity of original information, including spatial relations. It demonstrates that also in this case CIDOC-CRM offers a valid schema that may be easily extended to incorporate geographic elements and relations. The system proposed is applied to a case-study concerning a Bronze Age 10 year-long excavation in Cyprus.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): Information Storage and Retrieval [H.3.5]: Web - based ServicesManaging Full-text Excavation Data with Semantic Tools
