Research is a Technique a Archeologist gets on 1st level in SLASH'EM.

If you are not stunned, confused or hallucinating and the check (INT+WIS>rnd(60)) succeeds, you are able to identify one item. This number increases to 2 at level 10, 3 at level 20 and 4 at level 30.

If you succeed, or if everything in your pack is identified, the technique is reusable after 500-1500 turns. Otherwise, it is reusable after 500 turns.
