The official archaeological body managing the Pompeii site, characterized by its internal tension between bureaucratic oversight and unauthorized research.

Snapshot #

The Pompeii Research Project is the official research entity authorized to explore the newly discovered sectors of Pompeii in 2025. It serves as the umbrella organization for various specialized units, most notably Team A and Team B (Team Quant).

Mandate/Charter #

To identify, preserve, and document the architectural and literary remains of pre-eruption Pompeii using advanced ground-penetrating radar and AI-driven analysis.

Structure & Ranks #

  • The Director: Parrini (Bureaucratic lead, focused on public credit and funding).
  • Team A (The Silent Architects): Led by Lucia, focused on exploratory excavation.
  • Team B (Team Quant): Led by Elena Rossi, focused on geophysical and statistical mapping.

History #

The project gained international prominence in late 2025 following a series of "lucky" finds by Team A. This success triggered a forensic audit when Director Parrini began to suspect that Ulysses and Lucia were withholding their methodology. The project's integrity was further compromised when Ulysses began injecting coordinates from the future into the site's data feeds.
