Gentillischo Scholars

The Phoebian School of Archeology on Aeos (PSAA), previously *Istituto archeologico di punta d'oro*, is the only body in the Phoebian league devoted to research into the ancient civilizations and languages across Aeos. It is often referred to as the Gentillischo Scholars by members of the school. The School has made major contributions to the study of the ancient world. The Society is based in Punta d'Ora and is a registered charity under Phoebian law.

## History

The school was founded by Alesso and Cliara Gentileschi in Punta d'Ora, during the *Tranquillita* reign in order to examine and excavate record of pre-phoebian barbarian communities. The PSAA have worked at many major excavation and sites, especially in the League and across the Worldshead Grasslands. Their discoveries include the discovery of Pre-phoebian shrines to Tenntron at multiple locations across the League, the mortuary temple of Queen Aineías San, the ransacked tomb of *Sc. Tatialle IV,* and the theory on the existence of the Dhruv sacred site *Pyaara* in Allhallow Bluff.

In 2131, PSAA sold two-thirds of its collection of Araav Ivories, discovered between 1979 and 2032 in excavations led by Sir Enzo di Costa, to the Punta d'Oran Museum for G-1.67 million. The remaining third was donated to the Allhallow Bluff community as a show of goodwill. Until the Allhallow community has the ability to safely maintain and exhibit the Ivories, the Punta d'Oran Museum has elected to keep them on display at the Sweetwater branch.

## Publications

The Gentillischo Scholars publish the Pheobian Journal of Archeology (PJA), a leading journal for the publication of any ancient Aeosian research. The Journal publishes scholarly articles (main articles and brief communications), fieldwork reports, and reviews of archeological books. It comes out bi-annually, in Spring and Autumn. Only registered scholars of the PSAA are able to submit and review articles, and an article must be published once every 2 years for a member to maintain their position as a Scholar. If a member is unable to submit a published paper in this time, or has never successfully published, they become only a probationary member.

## Presence in the Wolfshead Grasslands

Although the Gentillischo Scholars have operation directors for most of Aeos, they are mostly working directly across the League and the Wolfshead Grasslands. Based at the Gentillischi Hall in Sweetwater, the scholars fund and clear research across the grasslands, as well as receive research papers, manage scholar membership, and assist members however required.

The grasslands are managed by **Ser Gerrit Morello** from Punta D'Ora, but the local operations are run by **Ser Ellan Sount**. He is more the one to clear work orders, run the first-purge of research paper submissions to the PJA, and organise members. Ser Sount is a legacy member of the Scholars, as nephew of Ramia Sount, recipient of the Dumas medal, and is a beleiver of maintaing the reputation and legacy of the Gentillischo scholars. Ser Ellan Sount also arranges social activities and manages the Hall.
