Over the last few years a lot of effort went into collecting digital data relating to historical objects (manuscript digitisations, critical editions, watermark collections), and into making these available to specific scientific communities as well as to a broader public. Despite targeted standardisation actions, one of the major problems encountered was the heterogeneity of data to be modelled. This heterogeneity often steers researchers to local solutions which, in the longer term, are an obstacle to the integration of different repositories. Other prevalent
