The use of ontologies to represent geographical knowledge has received a lot of attention recently. Nevertheless, classical ontol- ogy languages are not able to represent incomplete and uncertain knowledge, which are very important characteristics of several situations in geographic domain.

In this paper, we present an extension of the OWL 2, named Poss-OWL 2, based on our Poss - SROIQ(D) description logic (DL). Then we describe some reflections about the inference system. Illustrative examples, from archaeological domain, are given
