Demonstrated by Eugenius in Midland Valley on 2015-12-01.

Overview

• Hunt for Archaeological Dig Sites on the roads of Egypt.
• Extract Relics from them using an Archaeologist Shovel.
• Match Relics and attributes with your Relic List
• The more attributes you match, the more points you receive.
• Requires 7 relics in your Trophy Case to compete in the test. The top three Archaeologists each week pass the Test.

Passing the Principle

• Review your relic list. Self > Test > Test of the Archeologist > Read my Relic List...
• Install 3 types of Relics listed in your Relic List into your Trophy Case
• Note that they must be 3 different types. (ie you can't install 2 Security Props)
• Each type automatically gives you 7 points, so regardless of attributes, check your score and you'll pass.

Relics

Relic Types

There are 21 types of relics. Each relic will have a set of attributes, one from each category noted below.

Relics	Color	Size	Sturdyness	Weight	Age	Purpose
Aether Flag Air of Reason Amusement Papers Attention Grabber Celestial Magnifier Dirt Pick Font of Wisdom Fortune Teller Holy Book Jewelry Collage Land Anchor Meditation Box Metallic Chalice Odd Bone Portrait Collection Ribbon of Harmony Security Prop Spreader of Delight Strange Sundial Sun Totem Wrist Exerciser	Black Blue Brown Green Grey Orange Pink Red Violet White Yellow	Tiny Small Mid-sized Large Giant	Delicate Sturdy Indestructible	Featherweight Lightweight Welterweight Heavy	Ancient Antique Old Timeless	Decorative Functional Valuable Royal Sacred

For example, you might find an Air of Reason that is Violet, Tiny, Indestructible, Heavy, Timeless, Functional.

Relic List

When you start the test, you will be given a list of your 14 ideal relics. Your goal is to find relics that match as many attributes as possible on your list.

Trophy Case

Built in a compound (7 x 5). Option to build is under "Tests...".

• 20 Gold Foil
• 1 Mirror
• 20 Boards
• 2 Spindle Tree Resin
• 2 Silk Cloth
• 2 Medium Diamond
• 2 Medium Sapphire
• 20 Bearings

Scoring and Passes

• When you install a relic in your Trophy Case, you will receive 1 point, with a 7x multiplier if you found it yourself.
• Each attribute on the relic that matches your ideal list will add a multiplier to the score for that relic.
• The multiplier for each attribute appears to be equal to the number of possibilities for that attribute minus 1, with the exception of color (which maxes out at 7).
  • Color: 7x
  • Size: 4x
  • Sturdyness: 2x
  • Weight: 3x
  • Age: 3x
  • Purpose: 4x
• You may not install more than one of a particular type of relic in the case.
• You may, however, remove installed relics, if you find a better match.
• You need at least 7 relics on your trophy case to be able to pass the test.
• Each week, the top three scores pass.

Trading

Although you do not get the 7x multiplier if you install a relic you did not find yourself, often it may still be better to do so if you can match more attributes.

In Tale 3, this led to an active trading market for relics.
