			A <ref target="sioc:Container">Container</ref> in which logically contains this (child) <ref target="sioc:Container">Container</ref>.
		</p>
		<p>
			This property is not functional:
			A Container can be contained in multiple other Containers.
			Nor is it transitive:
			The parent of the parent of a Container is not its own parent.
			It <em>is</em> irreflexive and asymmetric:
			A Container cannot contain itself, and two Containers cannot contain each other.
