We show that domain knowledge can be combined with meaningful and linked data exposed in the so-called Web of Data (aka semantic Web) by having the necessary provenance information for annotations. The combination of domain specific knowledge with existing Linked Open Data (LOD) requires well-designed modelling decisions for linking semantic data sets in a comprehensible way. We show that our combined approach is able to address the requirements of digital heritage in more sufficient ways than each model separately. We combine the advantages of a proven domain ontology with the flexibility and semantic richness of the OADM. In order to evaluate our approach, we show with a concrete example how a museum artifact is modeled in CIDOC-CRM and how these data can be interlinked with existing LOD in meaningful and machine-processable ways by encoding provenance information for new annotations using the OADM.enPushing the CIDOC-conceptual reference model towards LOD by open annotationsText/Conference Paper1617-5468
