Definition

Evolutionary Ontology is the part of Evolutionary Knowledge that studies "what exists" (the Existence and the Entities that create what exists, the Sources that produce the Events, the existence of Reality itself, the Derived Sources, the Forms, the things, the objects that populate the Universe, the sub-process of Creation itself). It describes the Entities that form Reality, everything that exists that is part of the Universal Reality, in terms of the organization of Events, expressed by Agents / Forces acting on Acted / Fields: Action, Information, the Structures of Information that result from the organization of Information, Forms, the whole Universe, "Everything in Evolution". Only for descriptive purposes, as per Reality, Evolutionary Ontology can be seen as articulated in Ontology of Physical Reality, Ontology of Cognitive Reality and Ontology of Metacognitive Reality.

Existence is an essential property that characterize the fundamental entity, the Primary Source, in its two active and passive aspects respectively, the Fundamental Force and the Elementary Field and the product of their interaction, the Elementary Events, the Elementary Action. In short, we can say that only Events exist. Everything else exists because Events happen.

Finally, we can say that Reality is made by Sources (Entities: Agents / Forces and Acted / Fields as dual aspects of a unique Reality), Events (expressions of the interactions of the dual aspects of the Entities, variations of their states), Relations (the connections between Events), Processes (the Entities interacting produce Events, the Relations among Events constitute the Processes that build the Reality). Processes, in turn, become new, more and more complex, (derived) sources, that produce new events, relations, processes, and so on, in a nested creative and evolutive structure that goes on and on.

Domains of Reality Entities Events Relations Processes

Physical Reality Physical Entities Physical Events Physical Relations Physical Processes - Process of Formation of Physical Reality
Cognitive Reality Cognitive Entities Cognitive Events Cognitive Relations Cognitive Processes - Process of Formation of Cognitive Reality
Metacognitive Reality Metacognitive Entities Metacognitive Events Metacognitive Relations Metacognitive Processes - Process of Formation of Metacognitive Reality

Common definition

Ontology, one of the fundamental branches of philosophy, is the study of the "being" as it is, as well as of its fundamental categories. The term derives from the Greek ὄντος, òntos (singular genitive of the present participle ὤν of the verb εἶναι, èinai, "to be") and from λόγος, lògos ("discourse"), so it literally means "discourse on being", but can also derive directly from τά ὄντα, or "the entities", variously interpretable according to the different philosophical positions.(Link to Wikipedia page: Ontology).
