description: The CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) is a theoretical and practical
  tool for information integration in the field of cultural heritage. It can help
  researchers, administrators and the public explore complex questions with regards
  to our past across diverse and dispersed datasets. The CIDOC CRM achieves this by
  providing definitions and a formal structure for describing the implicit and explicit
  concepts and relationships used in cultural heritage documentation and of general
  interest for the querying and exploration of such data. Such models are also known
  as formal ontologies. These formal descriptions allow the integration of data from
  multiple sources in a software and schema agnostic fashion. [from homepage]
