There are 15 Gizeh Ancient Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and all of them belong to the Riddles of the Ancients quest in the Gizeh chapter. GameSpot’s guide (published December 10, 2024) and PowerPyx’s collectible walkthrough (June 26, 2025) both list 15, and the locations below follow those guides. Some relics are reachable early, while others sit behind side-quest dungeons, the Sphinx, or main-story milestones, so the order below groups them by area rather than by the sequence you will likely reach them in.
Get the relic booklet first
The Gizeh Relic booklet is the quickest way to make the rest of the search manageable, because tracking the Riddles of the Ancients quest causes relic icons to appear on the map. According to GameSpot’s guide, the booklet is northeast of the Recreation Center:
- Go to the area northeast of the Recreation Center. Three dogs are guarding a carcass there.
- Use the whip on the dogs.
- Check the crate for the relic document.
- Track Riddles of the Ancients so the relic icons show on your map.
All 15 relic locations
The list below uses the order and area groupings from GameSpot’s guide. Where a relic depends on story progress, the requirement is stated with it. If a marker on your map does not match the description, trust the in-game map first, since the guides were published in late 2024 and mid-2025.
Worker’s Area, Haunted Tomb and Tomb of Khentkawes I (relics 1 to 4)
- Stele fragment reward (Worker’s Area): This relic is the reward for finding every Gizeh Stele Fragment. GameSpot notes it may be one of the last relics you collect in the chapter.
- Haunted Tomb: Complete the Haunting mystery. The guide says to gather a document, a photo, and a key from the Wehrmacht camp north of the Worker’s Area, then enter the locked dig site.
- Tomb of Khentkawes I: At the elevator area, enter the chamber with the pool where Nazis can be electrocuted. In the adjacent chamber, cross the gap at the grapple point. The relic is below the platforms.
- Tent near the Khentkawes I fast travel point: The relic is in a chest inside a tent that also holds the Jumbo Lasso Adventure Book. GameSpot gives the code 3262, which it bases on the hieroglyphic symbols in the room.
Nazi Compound (relics 5 and 6)
- Laundry room: This is a main-quest area that opens after you have at least four Stele Fragments. The laundry-room note gives the safe code 40926.
- Roof deck: From the main building, exit through a window and climb the platforms and ledges to the roof deck. Check the room to the right and the crate at the back.
Seat of Mystery, Sphinx and its dungeon (relics 7 to 11)
- Seat of Mystery: Start by talking to Nawal’s spy in the northwestern part of Gizeh Village. Then enter the mini-dungeon near the dogs and collect four Canopic Jars. GameSpot’s order, clockwise from left to right, is Human, Falcon, Jackal, Baboon.
- Small burial chamber behind the Sphinx: According to the guide, this relic does not require entering the Sphinx dungeon itself.
- Sanctuary of the Guardians (Sphinx dungeon): Continue the Sphinx side quest until Gina can pass through a raised gate. The relic is in a corner at the foot of a statue.
- Sphinx dungeon side room: While Gina keeps the scorpions away, check the side rooms as you move deeper into the dungeon.
- Sphinx dungeon, past the Protector Stele: Just beyond that chamber, cross the scorpion gap and climb the grips immediately to the right to reach a small room above.
Great Pyramid cave system and Three-Eyed Gate (relics 12 to 15)
- Underground Cave System beneath the Great Pyramid: This requires progressing the main quest to the Dream Stele mystery and solving the Chamber of Resonance. Look to the left of the cavern just before the mirror puzzle and jump the gap.
- Three-Eyed Gate chamber: Check the room on the left.
- Cavern after the Three-Eyed Gate: In the open area with rock formations, go to the raised formation at the back, away from the exit that leads to a boss fight. The relic is by the ledge.
- Final hidden relic (stone tablet puzzle): In the same cavern as relic 14, go to the lower-left part of the central rock formation. Insert several relics into the indentations, then rotate the object to raise the remaining nodes. GameSpot says trial and error is acceptable and that having more relics collected makes the puzzle easier. A fake wall opens once all the nodes are raised.
Make the Nazi patrols easier to handle
GameSpot recommends acquiring the Wehrmacht Uniform, which it says reduces suspicion from most hostile soldiers. This is the guide’s recommendation rather than a result the guide documents from testing, but it is worth having while you move through the Haunted Tomb and Nazi Compound areas.

Route order and what the guides do not cover
The guides group the relics by location and do not provide a timed or fastest route, so no time comparison is made here. Overworld relics can be collected whenever you are in the area. Side-quest dungeons, the Sphinx, and the cave system depend on the quests described above, so the Stele reward and the final hidden relic are the natural checks to make once the rest are done.
Both guides list the same 15 relics, but the descriptions above are the guides’ own wording, not a re-test of each step.
