;<span id="primary_object">Primary object</span>: Primary objects are the [[Using_database_API|data structures]] at the top level of a [[Gramps_Data_Model|hierarchical collection of records]] in the Gramps [[Gramps_Data_Model|data model]]. Beside the main structure of data, they can contain a hierarchy of [[#secondary_object|secondary objects]], and can be referenced by other primary or secondary objects. In the Gramps database, primary objects and the secondary objects that they contain are stored as separate records. Each primary object type is stored in a separate table. See [[Using_database_API#Primary_Objects|Using database API, Primary Objects]] (see also ''[[#secondary_object|secondary object]]'')
