Class: Statement (FlatStatement)

An RDF statement that links a predicate (a Property) with an object (a Thing) to the subject to form a triple. A Statement is used to qualify a relation to a Thing referenced by its identifier. For specifying a qualified relation to an attribute that has no dedicated identifier, use an AttributeSpecification.

    notes:
    - We do not declare a range here to be able to tighten the range in subclasses
      of class that need a particular range. This appears to be working around a linkml
      limitation.
