Structured Prompt for Archaeological Dig Scene with 3D Data Overlay

A highly structured JSON-formatted prompt for Nano Banana Pro detailing an archaeological scene. The prompt specifies the setting (dusty desert trench), subject (based on an uploaded image, crouching, excited), technical style (5:4 portrait, documentary, high contrast), and a unique element: a semi-transparent 3D timeline and data projection emanating from a recently uncovered ceramic pot.
