A buried ancient relic.

Ancient relics are exclusive rewards obtained during the Smashing Relics promotion on Treasure Hunter. They can be smashed onto the ground to obtain rewards within, which include a medium cash bag, and a random reward like gems, prismatic lamps, and former Treasure Hunter and Squeal of Fortune items.

During the promotion, members can also receive up to two ancient relics per day by finding them partially buried in the ground in various places. Ironmen, however, cannot pick up these buried relics, and instead receive the message You're unable to interact with this relic on an ironman account.. Once two relics have been picked up, players cannot see any further relics until reset.

Locations

Partially buried relics can be found on members' worlds in the locations listed in the table below. The relics do not appear on the minimap, and there are no requirements to obtain them (aside from the restriction on ironmen). As the locations vary by world, and also change each hour, not every location listed will currently have a relic. Multiple relics can spawn per hour.

Location	Description
	North-east of the gnome glider in Al Kharid
	East of the Draynor Bank
	North-east of the Edgeville furnace
	West of the eastern Falador bank, two paces south and one east of the tree.
	South of Explorer Jack's house in Lumbridge, within the castle grounds
	North-west of the Port Sarim lodestone
	North of the Varrock Museum, south-east of the estate agent
	South of the southern East Ardougne bank, west of The Poison Arrow pub
	In the middle of the three southern houses in Seers' Village
	North of the Yanille lodestone
