Schliemann

Schliemann was a professor of the Imperial Academy in Castel Graupian and a distinguished specialist in the sigillography of the Dark Ages. At some point after the 13th century, he led a team of archaeologists conducting excavations in Beauclair. He and his team discovered a cavern containing two perfectly preserved skeletons and a tube of hardened leather embossed with the coat of arms of Rivia, at that time an ancient kingdom of unconfirmed location.
Schliemann and his team believed the tube contained manuscripts of the past, and so linguists and scholars of extinct languages were prudently summoned from Castel Graupian. Unfortunately, rumours of the unearthed 'treasure' reached three diggers hired by Schliemann's team and, convinced the tube contained gold and valuables, they stole the artefact for themselves. The contents of the artefact were lost forever when the trio, Billy Goat, Kamil Ronstetter and Zdyb, mistook the text for spells and burnt it all.
