Project title

Cultural Contact Ontology (CuCoO)

Abstract

CuCoO emerges from dissatisfaction with the existing domain ontologies for capturing data related to cultural phenomena. CuCoO defines main concepts related to cross-cultural interaction in antiquity and explores different ways of perceiving and modelling cultural contact phenomena.
