Note: In a controlled vocabulary hierarchy, an ancestor record that provides a broader context for the record at hand, and that is defined as the primary ancestor record in the event of there being multiple ancestors in a polyhierarchical structure. The status of being the preferred parent may be defined by multiple parameters as indicated by the guidelines of the database or the hierarchy itself. |
