How Speciation connects Entity context

The extracted context around Speciation shows recurring relationship patterns in the source. For example, Speciation → Berkeley, Boxhorn, California, February, Hawks, Houston, Inc, John, John Hawks Weblog, Joseph, March, Observed Instances, September, TalkOrigins Archive, The TalkOrigins Foundation, TX, University Another extracted example is Speciation → African, Darwin's, Eventually, Finding, If, In, Ispidina, It, Once, Rare, Rarity, Sexual, The, This, Thus, Under. Use these groups to spot repeated connection types before inspecting the individual relationships.
