Well, you can say whatever you like about your instances, but your OWL
schema did not say that, it only assigned the one resource as the object of
the mappingClass property.
I think you could get what you are after by using allValuesFrom, couldn't
you? From the OWL Language reference -
<owl:Restriction>
<owl:onProperty rdf:resource="#hasParent" />
<owl:allValuesFrom rdf:resource="#Human" />
</owl:Restriction>
This can be applied to a class.
