For material which extends into late antiquity we have had to deal with – for example – Christian saints: we therefore have a category of Divine and sacred beings. The evidence would be cult. Worth considering
http://cultofsaints.history.ox.ac.uk/
The question may be, therefore, not whether divinity is disputed, but whether the person has a place in a >secular< as well as a >sacred< list – and, if so, how to mark them up

please feel free to discuss here any issues in the SNAP Cookbook (development version at <http://bit.ly/SNAPcookbook>), ask for clarification or suggest improvements (especially to the "attestation" section). Likewise any of the other topics that were originally proposed for this activity.
Gabby,
Having volunteered to write something describing the
snap:associatedEvent property, my first thought was that such
events could have, as properties, associated dates, places and
participants, as well as (for example) a descriptive name for the
event itself.
Is the group happy with this suggestion, or would that be seen as adding too much complexity to SNAP? The current design consciously limits itself to simple (untyped) links between the person of interest and a person, place or date: these are what the CIDOC CRM crew would call 'short-cuts'. Being able to say that a date and place are co-contextual in the context of a single event allows for much greater precision and expressive power, at the expense of simplicity. (One approach that other projects have adopted is to include each date, place, etc. twice in the RDF: once as a 'short-cut' property and a second time in its proper context.)
