Stutzmann, D., Torres Aguilar, S., & Chaffenet, P. (2021). HOME-Alcar: Aligned and Annotated Cartularies [Data set]. Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5600884
`

The dataset contains nested spans. This is important because specific individual's identities are often tied to a specific place. This means that the location entity is part of the person identity. To keep this nuance, the dataset should be used with the spaCy SpanCat pipe.

## Example Data
