Higgins uses the Identity Gang definition of Entity with the addition of "concept":
Entity: Person, thing, juridical entity, concept, animal or anything with separate existence. [from wikipedia (see entity), JacoA]
Note: In Higgins an Entity is a non-modeled concept. Each of potentially many distinct, contextualized digital representations of an Entity exist simultaneously. Each is called a Digital Subject.
