Circa Registry entry
Specify a circa period (a start and an end date) and a title for the period.
In EMu a Circa is a period with a start and end date and a descriptive title, e.g. a Circa for World War 1 could have a title of WW1
, with a start year of 1914
and end year of 1918
.
A special text date field can be added to a module, along with two circa date fields to indicate a period within which an event occurred (Start Date and End Date). When WW1
is entered into the special text date field, the circa date fields are automatically populated with 1914 and 1918. The user can accept these circa dates or may override them by entering new values.
