The Semantic web envisioned by Tim Berners lee, provides for intelligent knowledge retrieval. Although in addition to knowledge retrieval there is also a need to make the knowledge so derived as trustworthy. This requires the incorporation of trust or provenance information in the semantic web. Provenance serves as a crucial factor in enhancing the trust ability of the semantic web. This paper aims at the creation of trustable semantic web by creating provenance assertions and provides for verifying the trust ability of these assertions by providing provenance of provenance descriptions for the same. This is shown using Bundles a special data structure required for the linking of provenance bundles. Also, we have tried to illustrate how the provenance descriptions created by one application can be effectively manipulated by other application by the use of these bundles
