This property describes the temporal confinement of an instance of an E2 Temporal Entity. The related E52 Time-Span is
understood as the real Time-Span during which the phenomena were active, which make up the temporal entity instance. It does not convey
any other meaning than a positioning on the “time-line” of chronology. The Time-Span in turn is approximated by a set of dates (E61 Time
Primitive). A temporal entity can have in reality only one Time-Span, but there may exist alternative opinions about it, which we would
express by assigning multiple Time-Spans. Related temporal entities may share a Time-Span. Time-Spans may have completely unknown dates
but other descriptions by which we can infer knowledge.
