The process history leading to the creation and current condition of an artifact. For scientific assertions/claims, this is the process history leading to the asseertion being made, including processes through which evidence is evaluated, and processes through which information used as evidence is created. The transitive nature of provenance means that the provenance history of informtion used as supporting data becomes provenance for an assertion that uses this information as evidence. Provenance metadata describes these processes, including accounts of who conducted these processes, what entities participated in them, and when/where they occurred.

Consider whether it is appropriate to place this under the BFO:history class, which may apply only to histories of "material entities or sites". And consider if we want/need to define this class at all - as it is not used to model data - only as a means to record what SEPIO considers provenance to be, and how it is different from evidence.
