class_uri: crm:E52_Time-Span
description: 'Represents temporal extent with fuzzy boundaries following CIDOC-CRM pattern.
E52_Time-Span models uncertainty in temporal bounds through four properties:
- P82a (begin_of_the_begin): Earliest possible start time
- P81a (end_of_the_begin): Latest possible start time
- P81b (begin_of_the_end): Earliest possible end time
- P82b (end_of_the_end): Latest possible end time
**Example**: "Founded sometime between 1800-1805, closed between 1950-1955"
- begin_of_the_begin: 1800-01-01 (earliest founding)
- end_of_the_begin: 1805-12-31 (latest founding)
- begin_of_the_end: 1950-01-01 (earliest closure)
- end_of_the_end: 1955-12-31 (latest closure)
**Use Cases**:
- Custodian founding/dissolution dates with uncertainty
- Historical event temporal bounds
- Archival record date ranges
**DO NOT USE FOR**: Database record metadata (use schema:dateCreated/dateModified)

comments:
- Handles temporal uncertainty common in heritage contexts
- 'Precise dates: Set begin_of_the_begin == end_of_the_begin (and same for end)'
- 'Unknown start: Set begin_of_the_begin to earliest plausible date'
- 'Unknown end: Leave end_of_the_end as null (ongoing/present)'
