From Web Characterization Terminology & Definitions Sheet (1999-05-24) | Glossary for this source
A resource manifestation is a rendition of a resource at a specific
point in time and space. A conceptual mapping exists between a
resource and a resource manifestation (or set of manifestations),
in the sense that the resource has certain properties - e.g., its
URI, its intended purpose, etc. - which are inherited by each
manifestation, although the specific structure, form, and content
of the manifestation may vary according to factors such as the
environment in which it is displayed, the time it is accessed, etc.
Regardless of the form the manifestation's rendering ultimately
takes, the conceptual mapping to the resource is preserved.
Note: For historical reasons, HTTP/1.x
calls a manifestation for an "entity".
