Abstract
This paper introduces a Temporal Functional Database Language (TFDL), which realizes an event oriented approach to historical database modeling. According to this approach, the events that occur in an evolving system is the fundamental information which should be recorded. The time series of the system states is secondary information in the sense that it can be derived from the occurred events.
