Assassin's Creed Origins Guide › Activities › Tombs and Ancient Mechanisms

Seth-Anat Tomb

Territory: Desheret Desert

Silica Available: 15

Treasures: 3

Ancient Mechanism: Qeneb too Kah’Aiye

Silica Required for Mechanism: 5

Segment: 5

In the far south, an unnatural-looking, narrow canyon cuts through the middle of the desert. Enter from the west side to find a light bouncing from side to side as it reflects off mirrors that hang from either side of the canyon. When the light stops, you must find the next mirror and either move it into place or burn off the cobwebs to keep the beam going.

In the end, the light leads to both the Ancient Tablet and Ancient Mechanism, though these aren’t necessary to complete the site; you can run straight to the objectives.

This walkthrough pinpoints treasure and Silica locations along the way, using the mirrors as reference. Use your Animus Pulse often to find the moveable blocks and loot. Start out climbing the left ledges, enter the first opening on the left, and pull the block out to keep the light moving.

Continue along the same path, drop to the ledge that you are on, shimmy over a mirror, and climb back up on the other side. Search the cubbyhole ahead to find the first Silica. Exit the room and drop down to the left. Hop diagonally to the canyon’s right side, climb to the upper level, and pull out another mirror.Follow the ledges to the left and enter the opening ahead to find the second Silica. Exit and climb the blocks to the right to find a mirror in need of a cleaning, so clear it off with your torch. Continue ahead, drop down a couple levels, and enter the room on the right to collect the third Silica.

Just ahead on the right side, pull out another block to deflect the light. Farther to the right, drop down a couple levels and spot a cobweb-covered mirror on the left. Throw a torch or shoot a fire arrow to allow the beam to continue into the temple and find the first objective. Before entering the structure, head back to the left a short distance, and search a ground-level room on the north side to find the fourth Silica.

Head east to the tomb’s entrance, but before entering, grab the fifth Silica just across the canyon. Now enter the tomb and interact with the Ancient Tablet. Use fire to clear the mirror on the right wall, leading you deeper into the tomb, where you find the Ancient Mechanism.

Ancient Mechanism: Qeneb too Kah’Aiye

Collect three Silica scattered around the ramp, as it leads you into the burial room ahead. Collect two treasures on the right and the five Silica scattered about before activating the mechanism. After activating the mechanism, you can use the teleporter to the left of the pedestal and teleport to the entrance of the canyon.

Exit the tomb to the left and search the two rooms in the far corner to find a treasure and Silica. Continue right to the next corner and climb up to an opening to find the last Silica in the area.
