The <code>@prefix</code> directive associates a prefix label with an IRI.
+ Subsequent <code>@prefix</code> directives may re-map the same local name.
A prefixed name is a prefix label and a local part, separated by a colon ":".
A prefixed name is mapped to an IRI by concatenating the IRI associated with the prefix and the local part.
- The local part of a prefixed name may have <a href="#reserved">reserved character escape sequences</a> (described below) to represent the characters ples language includes absolute IRIs but no relative IRIs or prefixed names.

The <code>@base</code> directive defines the Base IRI used to resolve relative IRIs per RFC3986 section 5.1.1, "Base URI Embedded in Content".
- Section 5.1.2, "Base URI from the Encapsulating Entity" defines how the Base IRI may come from an encapsulating document, such as a SOAP envelope with an xml:base directive or a mime multipart document with a Content-Location header.
+ Section 5.1.2, "Base URI from the Encapsulating Entity" defines how the In-Scope Base IRI may come from an encapsulating document, such as a SOAP envelope with an xml:base directive or a mime multipart document with a Content-Location header.
The "Retrieval URI" identified in 5.1.3, Base "URI from the Retrieval URI", is the URL from which a particular SPARQL query was retrieved.
If none of the above specifies the Base URI, the default Base URI (section 5.1.4, "Default Base URI") is used.
+ Each <code>@base</code> directive sets a new In-Scope Base URI, relative to the previous one.
