The document discusses Project Historiographus and the HiSTEMM ontology, which aim to create a semantic wiki for the history of science. It notes the limitations of linear narratives in capturing history, as events can occur simultaneously across space and time with alternative narratives. The project seeks to address this by developing a web of interconnecting people, objects, ideas, and other relations. However, it acknowledges that while hypertext allows equivalent connecting lines between nodes, historical relations differ in nature depending on the type of nodes connected.
