The buried monuments are usually located within 200 coordinates of the original location.  Some monuments drift more than others and were occasionally found up to 600 coordinates from the original location.  One monument in T5 was bugged and found several thousand coordinates from the original build location.
+
The T5 monument event had a lot of errors with several false starts, some monuments not showing the correct graphics or getting stuck before they finished, and other monuments missing.

:: According to Asheara on 27 Feb 2012: "a few monuments have shifted between 3-500 coordinated from their last known location
+
All of the monuments were eventually found and dug up.  They were all within 500 coordinates of their location in the prior tale.
−
This suggests they shift from last *known* location, not from original location.
 
−
Furthermore a monument can be as big as 8x11 retangular base plus odd additions in several directions.
 
−
You'll not notice a monument if you're outside this area.
 
−
This suggest you run search patterns in lines of 8 coordinates.
 
−
There might be NO sound associated with finding a monument, so you'll have to watch your "Main" closely.

Begins Friday, February 24, 2012, 12:00PM EST (5PM GMT, 4AM AEST)
Ends Sunday, March 25, 2012 12:00PM EST (5PM GMT, 4AM AEST)

Calendar Information

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives....

The time has come to search for the Great Monuments of our ancestors. Where have the sands of time shifted these great works? Only time and a good Archaeologist's Shovel will tell.

Make sure to use your Archaeologist's shovel and not your regular shovel. An Archaeologist's shovel also has a quality assigned to it like a normal shovel.

The contest technically ends when the last shovelful is dug up and prizes will be given out at that time.

A Participation prize will be given for each monument.

Prizes will be awarded for the first shovelful, the last shovelful, the most work done on each monument, also the total cumulative work done on all monuments and the total number of monuments worked on.

The First Shovelful on each monument will win a Beachcomber's Fly Rod The Last Shovelful on each monument will win a special Asheara Chit good for learning bellydancing! The player who does the Most Cumulative work will win: 

 Top 21 get a Beer Kettle Kit
 Top 7 get 1 Jade
 Top 3 get an Emerald Light Box
 Top 1 get a 9k+ regular Shovel

The player who works on the most monuments will win: 

 Top 49 will get 50 Papyrus Paper
 Top 21 will get 21 gold
 Top 3 will get 2 Huge Diamonds
 Top 1 will get a Diamond Light Box

Players working on any monument will be entered in a Lottery where 5 will win an Untuned Microphone part

Search Information

You'll need an Archaeologist's Shovel to both locate a buried monument and help dig it up once it's found. Archaeologist Shovels are made on anvils from 8 metal. Better quality shovels help dig up monuments faster. We don't know if better quality shovels help locate monuments from farther away.

If you can't get a blacksmith to make you a good quality archaeologist's shovel, simply load 8 metal onto an anvil and immediately complete the project to get a quality 4020 shovel.

Monuments were built in prior tales to add new tests to the game. The original build locations are listed in the following table. At the end of each tale, the monuments are buried below the ground. We, the players, then have to dig them back up again during each tale.

The T5 monument event had a lot of errors with several false starts, some monuments not showing the correct graphics or getting stuck before they finished, and other monuments missing.

All of the monuments were eventually found and dug up. They were all within 500 coordinates of their location in the prior tale.
