You can't integrate the XSD model precisely as it is defined because Wikidata
doesn't allow all of the constraints that XSD allows. Specifically, you'll notice
that you can't force an item to have a specific property (like the document or
epigraphic reference in your model) and enumerations aren't currently supported.
Wikidata has a global collection of properties and any item can use any arbitrary subset
of them. The list is here:
http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:List_of_properties. Some
of the ones you want already exist, like material used for a building.
http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P186 You'll want to propose the other ones you
want here:
http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal. I just added two
statements (when you use a property, called a claim without references) to the Potaissa
item that you use as an example.

Subject: [Wikidata-l] A data model for Roman forts (castra)
Hi all,
I recently attended "Wikidata meets archeology" symposium and I came
across the question how a well structured and comprehensive data model
of Roman forts (castra) could be integrated into Wikidata and then used
on Wikipedia. For this I developed a raw XSD model based on the data
model of Wikipedia's Infobox castrum. I put this model on the talk page
of Q88205 (
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Talk:Q88205) adding also a
simple example. I would like to know this data model could be integrated
into Wikidata? It is feasible? Is it too complex?
Thank you,
Saturnian
