  The use of Semantic Web Technologies supports research in the field of
digital humanities. In this paper we focus on the creation of semantic
independent online databases such as those of historical prosopography. These
databases contain biographical information of historical persons. We focus on
this information with an interest in German professorial career patterns from
the 16th to the 18th century. In that respect, we describe the process of
building an Early Modern Scholarly Career RDF Knowledge Graph from two existing
prosopography online databases: the Catalogus Professorum Lipsiensium and the
Catalogus Professorum Helmstadiensium. Further, we provide an insight in how to
query the information using KBox to answer research questions.
