+            It is possible to provide more than one mapping for a particular persistent class. In this
+            case you must specify an <emphasis>entity name</emphasis> do disambiguate between instances
+            of the two mapped entities. (By default, the entity name is the same as the class name.)
+            Hibernate lets you specify the entity name when working with persistent objects, when writing
+            queries, or when mapping associations to the named entity.
