BirthPlace:
class_uri: schema:Place
description: "Structured representation of a person's place of birth with support for historical place names, modern equivalents, and geographic identifiers.\n**PURPOSE**:\nBirthPlace replaces simple string birth_place slots to provide: - Historical place name preservation - Modern place name linkage - Geographic identifier integration (GeoNames, Wikidata) - Coordinate storage for mapping applications\n**HISTORICAL VS. MODERN NAMES**:\nMany birth places used historical names that have since changed: - \"Batavia\" \u2192 \"Jakarta\" - \"Bombay\" \u2192 \"Mumbai\" - \"Leningrad\" \u2192 \"St. Petersburg\" - \"Saigon\" \u2192 \"Ho Chi Minh City\"\nBirthPlace preserves the source name while linking to modern identifiers.\n**GEOGRAPHIC RESOLUTION**:\nPer AGENTS.md Rule on GeoNames as authoritative source: - `geonames_id`: Links to GeoNames for standardization - `has_or_had_identifier`: Links to Wikidata for additional context - `coordinates`: Lat/lon for mapping\n**ONTOLOGY ALIGNMENT**:\n| Ontology\
\ | Mapping | Usage | |----------|---------|-------| | **Schema.org** | `schema:Place` | Primary class | | **CIDOC-CRM** | `crm:E53_Place` | Place entity | | **GeoNames** | `gn:Feature` | Geographic feature |\n**EXAMPLE**:\n```yaml has_or_had_place_of_birth:\n place_name: \"Batavia\"\n modern_place_name: \"Jakarta\"\n country_code: \"ID\"\n geonames_id: 1642911\n has_or_had_identifier:\n qid: \"Q3630\"\n```"
