#### Row Lineage
-In v3 and later, an Iceberg table can track row lineage fields for all newly
created rows. Row lineage is enabled by setting the field `row-lineage` to
true in the table's metadata. When enabled, engines must maintain the
`next-row-id` table field and the following row-level fields when writing data
files:
+In v3 and later, an Iceberg table must track row lineage fields for all newly
created rows. Engines must maintain the `next-row-id` table field and the
following row-level fields when writing data files:
-* `_row_id` a unique long identifier for every row within the table. The value
is assigned via inheritance when a row is first added to the table and the
existing value is explicitly written when the row is copied into a new file.
-* `_last_updated_sequence_number` the sequence number of the commit that last
updated a row. The value is inherited when a row is first added or modified and
the existing value is explicitly written when the row is written to a different
data file but not modified.
