**Domain:** Digital Afterlife / Representation / Legal Classification
**Doc Type:** Canonical Concept
**Maturity:** Developed
**Evidence / Concept Status:** Corpus synthesis
## Definition
A **Represented Human Object** is a computational or informational object that represents a specific person without yet being treated as that person's continuing legal identity.
## Continuity Significance
The category keeps twins, replicas, archives, and deadbots from being prematurely collapsed into personhood.
## Existing Architecture / Evidence
Digital twins, replicas, posthumous avatars, and deadbots are represented-human objects in current law unless another status attaches.
## Evidentiary Boundary / Red-Team Note
The word object describes legal/operational classification, not moral worth.
