Add Object Geography
Use Object Geography to catalogue the Nationality or Culture of an object's maker and the place made. Nationality/Culture in the object is in addition to cataloguing the maker's nationality in their constituent record. Nationality was recorded instead of place made in the legacy database and is the most consistent way to query for an object's geographic details.
