We wanted to enhance interoperability among diverse archives and to make disperse digital information available through the web in a standard format. Our toolset includes an application for mapping existing archive schemas to ontology schemas (AMA Mapping Tool), a tool to recursively markup unstructured text documents (AMA Text Tool) and a Semantic Web Database able to store, query and return simple and complex semantic information (MAD). We used the CIDOC-CRM core ontology to define the entities we dealt with and to describe concepts and relations among them.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): H.3.5 [Information Storage and Retrieval]:Web-based Services
