As you go further in the storyline of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, you’ll find yourself exploring all kinds of mysterious places that are filled with secrets. One such place is the Vatican City, where you’ll come across some exciting discovery missions.
The good thing about Vatican City’s relics is that you can’t miss them. They’ll always be available. Even after you leave Vatican City, you can come back for the collectibles at any point in the game. Make sure you’ve started the Stolen Cat Mummy adventure since that’ll open up many places in the area. Here’s a guide to finding the Ancient collectibles scattered all over Vatican City.
How To Get All 10 Vatican City Ancient Relics In Indiana Jones & The Great Circle
Most of the collectibles are present in the underground parts of the city.
Ancient Relic #1
For this collectible, go to the secret passage in the library. This is a story-related area so you’ll end up here as you progress on the main quest. Go towards the puddle/water opening in the ground and jump in it.
Swim across towards the other side until you see an opening above. Come out and go towards the left room. Use your whip to remove the yank and open the door to the next room. Before you get to the next room, you’ll find an Ancient Relic on the table in front of it. It will be a hand-carved stone of prehistoric times.
Ancient Relic #2
Start in the area shown on the map above. On your right, you’ll see an opening leading to the other room, this is where you need to go. Take a right from the opening and then take a left, where you’ll see an old room. Keep going ahead until you come across a corpse. Take the torch as it’ll be dark in the next areas. Keep going forward towards the right until you see a narrow opening between the two stone walls.
Indy will be able to squeeze through it. Once you get to the other side, there will be a small room with a door that needs to be burned down. Once you do that, you will see the Ancient Relic lying on the left side of the room near some huge vases and skulls.
Ancient Relic #3
You can find this relic while exiting the Necropolis. From the area shown on the map, go on the left path until you see a stone statue on the ground. Pick it up and put it on its post which will be a bit farther on the right. This will open up a closed room on the left, and you will find Ancient Relic #3.
Ancient Relic #4
While exiting the Catacombs, go to the area on the map. Climb up on a boulder on the left side. Use Indy’s whip to latch onto the logs in the top right corner. Go up and then head towards the left side of this area. The 4th Ancient Relic will be sitting on the stone structure near the skeleton.
Ancient Relic #5
After reaching the location on the map, go towards the room on the left. You’ll have to crouch down and squeeze through a small opening at the bottom. This will lead you to a hallway where you need to find a room on the left.
There is another bust on the ground here. Pick it up and place it on the stone pedestal outside. Come out and use the stick to break open the hidden pathway on the right. Another bust will be lying in this room. Place it in its designated place. After you place both of the busts in the right place, a secret room will be unlocked. The 5th Ancient Relic is in the dark room on the stone chimney.
Ancient Relic #6
Come out to the area on the map, then climb the stairs straight ahead. Keep going on this narrow path until you reach a large hole in the ground. Use your whip to lower yourself into the hole below slowly. The 6th Ancient Relic will be right in front of you.
Ancient Relic #7
While you’re exploring the Golden Dragon Path, go into the room on the right and then walk towards the end of the stone hallway. You’ll see a small opening on the left, go through it and you’ll find a bust lying on the ground. Place it on the pedestal and go back to the previous room through the small opening. This will unlock a secret room on the left where Gina would be standing. The 7th Ancient Relic is right in the middle of the room on the stone slabs.
Ancient Relic #8
During the Cat Mummy search, go forward from the area shown on the map. Take a left and carefully go through the first obstacle path. Before doing the next one, go to its left side and jump into the water below. The 8th Ancient relic will be on a small stone structure here.
Ancient Relic #9
This Relic can be found while searching the Cat Mummy. When you are in the area on the map above, Gina will ask you to open a door with the help of your pendant. Go on the left side of the room and then take a right. Take a left again and you’ll see that there’s an Ancient Relic on the shelf near the books and the painting.
Ancient Relic #10
For the final Relic, you’ll have to make a bit more progress in the Stolen Cat Mummy mission. When you are in Antonio’s office, there will be an Ancient Relic on his table. Taking this will complete the quest of finding all the Ancient Relics that you could get while in Vatican City.
The City also holds a couple of puzzles, if you get stuck at either of those, you may want to check out our guides on the Secret of Secrets puzzle and the Fountain of Confession puzzle.
