-Note that a named set of provenance descriptions can take any form beyond PROV-O triples, including videotaped testimony or scribbles on a drink napkin. The extension of Bundle that contains only PROV-O assertions is not named by PROV or PROV-O, since it is more appropriate to do so using other recommendations, standards, or technologies. In any case, a Bundle of PROV-O assertions is an abstract set of RDF triples, and adding or removing a triple creates a distinct Bundle of PROV-O assertions.

+      which members it contains as it evolves, and how it was assembled. The <a href="#hadMember" class="qname">prov:hadMember</a> 
+      property is used to assert membership in a collection.

 	  <p>More generally, the property <a href="#wasInfluencedBy" class="qname">prov:wasInfluencedBy</a> is a superproperty that relates any influenced Entity, Activity, or Agent to any other influencing Entity, Activity, or Agent that had an effect on its characteristics.
