Get Open Context Item Detail

Retrieve full archaeological record details for a specific Open Context item by UUID and type. Returns the complete structured data including: label, category (e.g. Pottery, Coin, Human Bone), Dublin Core metadata (title, issued date, modified date), full context path (geographic hierarchy: continent → country → site → trench → unit), latitude/longitude, temporal coverage with BCE/CE ranges and period labels, creator attribution, subject tags, project membership, license, and all project-defined observations (attributes and values recorded during excavation, such as fabric type, condition, size, vessel form, description). Obtain the UUID from the last path segment of any opencontext.archaeology.search result URI. Item types: "subjects" for excavated objects and site contexts (default), "projects" for excavation projects, "media" for images and 3D models, "documents" for field notes.
