The Maria Doria was a famous luxury ship that was owned by Gianni Bartoli, the former leader of the Fiamma Nera. The ship was sunk to the bottom of the sea by the Barkhang Monks after Bartoli stole the Seraph from their Monastery. The Maria Doria wreck site serves as an excavation site later for Lara in Tomb Raider II when trying to retrieve the Seraph.
