This is a top-level ontology that would provide a rough anchoring of all base concepts here -- in space and time

OTOH, we can map to much more precise concepts and would be OK, as long as the respective ontologies have such a mapping.

For the social schema I made a start (one class). A meaningful strategy could be to look for broader concept in the obo domain, and check on OLS if these broader concepts already have a BFO mapping. Both the BFO mapping and the intermediate could be added to broad_mappings of a class.
