Hi Vencislav, Can you explain a bit more about your plans, please? My understanding, from your message, it that you want to record Dolmens, Tombs, Archaeological Sites and Heritage Resources. Is that correct?
If so I would suggest that you simply need a single model. Let me explain. The broadest grouping (ie. Heritage Resource) should have the same core attributes as the narrowest grouping (Dolmen) that is they will both have a name, location, date etc. associated with them. At the narrower level it may be that you would what more detailed or specialized information relating specifically to Dolmens but the nodes that record the more detailed information can be included in the broader model and simply left blank if you don’t have it. The use of E55 Type allows you to specify the level of the model So for instance your root node, in the single model, may be Heritage Resource (E18 Physical Thing) to record a dolmen you would add a Record Type node (E55 Type) associated with a controlled vocabulary which could be hierarchical in nature like a thesaurus you could then select Archaeological Site or Tomb or Dolmen. So you could have: Heritage Resource Record number 36: has type Dolmen Heritage Resource Record number 37: has type Tomb “ “ “ “ number 38: has type Chambered Tomb “ “ “ “ number 39: has type House The benefit of this is that you don’t need to design a different model for every type of thing you want to record. Obviously if you are only ever going to record Dolmens then a specific model would be fine. With regards to the language aspect, as far as I’m aware there is no reason why you shouldn’t be able to translate the interface into blugarian. The EAMENA project provides interfaces in English and Arabic (http://eamenadatabase.arch.ox.ac.uk/) and, I believe, uses a multi-lingual vocabulary. The RDM in both version 3 and 4 provides multilingual capabilities for creating and storing SKOS-compliant controlled vocabularies and you should be able to set the default language to Bulgarian. I hope this helps.

From: archesproject@googlegroups.com [mailto:archesproject@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Vencislav Pirinski Sent: 06 March 2018 18:25 To: Arches Project Subject: [Arches] Standards in Resourse models Hello, My name is Ventsislav Pirinski and I am from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. We would like to integrate Arches in bulgarian museums and we are working in close collaboration with some museums and heritage institutions. We want to show the capabilities of Arches with a sample project. We have working implementation of Arches 4.0. The project is about type of tombs, dolmens. We have created Resource model called "Dolmens" and modified it to suit our needs, but we want to relate it to a more general model. Something like this "Heritage resource model" -> "Archaeological site model" -> "Tombs model" -> "Dolmens model". We want to use a standard like CRM CIDOC for this relation. Can this be done natively in Arches? Also we want to have partial translation in Bulgarian for the reports. We know that the sections can not be translated, we are concerned only about the translation of the data. What advice would you give me for the implementation?
