# Ancient Digsite

<figure><img src="/files/y8YTtiph7jGiXya8NL5X" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Overview

Ancient Digsite is the main area for excavation progression.

It focuses on buried ruins, lost relics, rare materials, and archaeology discoveries.

Come here to dig through ancient ground, upgrade [Gear](/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite/gear.md), and progress deeper into relic-based content.

### What you can find

Ancient Digsite mixes excavation, exploration, and rare rewards.

You can find:

* [NPCs](/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite/npcs.md) that help with brushes, shovels, archaeology luck, excavation growth, relic trades, and material refinement.
* Rare [Drops](/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite/drops.md) from `Sand`, `Red Sand`, `Gravel`, `Soul Sand`, `Soul Soil`, `Mud`, and `Clay`.
* [Mobs](/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite/mobs.md) and discoveries like the `Archivist`, `Champion Archaeologist`, `Champion Excavator`, `Excavator`, `Tad, The Lost Explorer`, `Tomb Researcher`, and the `Ancient Ragnarok Dragon`.

{% hint style="info" %}
Each new Ancient Digsite discovery rewards **250 Excavation XP** in the [Codex](/orange-smp-wiki/codex.md).

Complete the full Codex to unlock the **Sniffer Pet**.

### Why it matters

This area is more than a digging zone.

Its relics, trades, bosses, discoveries, and [Runes](/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite/runes.md) all feed into excavation progression.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://orange-lounge-smp.gitbook.io/orange-smp-wiki/areas/ancient-digsite.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
