We want to build a database for a community of paleontologists, storing information about the fossils kept in different museums.

Each fossil is described by the year and place of discovery, the name of the paleontologist who discovered it, the room where it is exposed, and the presumed species. Each fossil may be assigned to different species with different degrees of probability.

Museums are characterized by their rooms, their paleontologists and the director (should be a paleontologist).
