<separatedmaterial> Separated Material

<separatedmaterial> encodes information about materials associated by provenance to the described materials but that have been physically separated or removed. These items may have been destroyed (including duplicates), moved to another area of the repository/another repository, or returned to the creator. This is not the same as <relatedmaterial>, which is not related to the materials by provenance, accumulation, or use. This element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.5.3 and MARC field 544 with indicator 0.

<separatedmaterial> is one of the elements which may be used within <archdesc>, <c>, <c01> … <c12>, and itself.
