Archeologists at the ancient site that I've been observing have their office and staffroom in blue containers alongside the dig. There they congregate, keep files, folders, basic kitchenware, tools of their trade and a few artefacts as they are discovered. Alternative worlds however must exist in their mind's eye as they carry out their work. Their presence at the moment is as significant as the lives of people there in the past and also the future.
