We need to define the core and extended data elements of a historical place. Probably the simplest would be to pick a place in Opele's historical administrative hierarchy, e.g. Duchy of Opole and Racibórz.

Need to decide whether this will require a full RDF sample (derived in large part from Opele) or whether a description of the differences would suffice.

There are already historic laces defined in the Opele example file.

e.g. https://github.com/culturesofknowledge/emplaces/blob/master/models/20180802-opole-example-multisourced.ttl#L1567 (ex:Opole_Duchy_EMPlaces).

Following up a discussion with Graham in late August, what I will review is whether the structure for a 'current place' (e.g. Opole) can be re-used as is for a 'historical place' (e.g. Duchy of Opole) with just one change: representing the different from: to: dates that place existed in time (which should be found in its admin/political historical hierarchy) as a simple table, in place of the 'current hierarchy'.

In this way, we don't need a new pattern. The data for one or more from: to: periods for the historical place is already explicit in its admin/political historical hierarchy – we'd just be representing it in a different, more visually accessible manner in place of the (obviously not relevant) current hierarchy derived from the reference gazetteer(s). I'll create a separate Duchy of Opele UI mockup for this to illustrate what I mean.
