Senkamati Artifacts are relics of a vanished ancient people whose ruins dot the archipelago. Every piece carries the same recovery note in its item description: "Found in ruins and sold to smugglers." They are one of the few item categories where the expected player behavior is to flip rather than use, since the Smugglers of Port Royal maintain a dedicated buyer for them.
The set is also the strongest lore hook for the archipelago's pre-pirate history, tied to the Clay Tablets collectible and the Senkamati narrative buried in Murals I through III.
Image | Artifact | Rarity | Smuggler Payout | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wooden Talisman | Uncommon | 5 Piastre | A fish-shaped amulet once worn by ancient fishermen to bring a richer catch. |
| Bone Beads | Uncommon | 5 Piastre | A simple decoration made from bone and nuts. |
| Clay Vase | Uncommon | 5 Piastre | A vase with a wavy pattern, corn seeds lodged in the cracks. |
| Ancient Chalice | Epic | 1 Guinea (40 Piastre) | A rare ceremonial drinking cup preserved against all odds. |
| Ancient Incense Burner | Epic | 1 Guinea (40 Piastre) | A ritual burner, likely used in temple ceremonies. |
| Pot with Golden Horns | Epic | 1 Guinea (40 Piastre) | A pot with curved gold hornlike fittings, ceremonial in origin. |
| Gold Mask of the Priest | Legendary | 5 Guinea (300 Piastre) | Pure gold, with a genuinely frightening face. |
| Gold Temple Jug | Legendary | 5 Guinea (300 Piastre) | Gold jug set with three large rubies. |
| Gold Vase of the Chief | Legendary | 5 Guinea (300 Piastre) | Elegant gold vase studded with precious stones. |
The Guinea coin is the Smugglers' premium currency. A single Guinea converts to 40 Piastre at the Smugglers of Port Royal Buyer, so a Legendary artifact sold for 5 Guinea is effectively worth 300 Piastre. The Tortuga Buyer accepts Epic artifacts at 40 Piastre flat.
Looted from chests and display shelves inside ancient ruins across the Foothills, Swamp, and inland jungle areas.
Occasionally dropped by the ruin-dwelling guardians described in Exquemelin's Notes.
Unlocked by the Ancient Foothills Key and Ancient Swamp Key when sealed chests are opened.
Smugglers of Port Royal pay in Guinea for Epic and Legendary artifacts. Bank these on Tortuga and spend Guineas on smuggler-gated gear rather than flipping to Piastre.
Uncommon artifacts stack to 20, Epic to 5, and Legendary to 1. Plan inventory slots accordingly on long ruin dives.
The artifacts are not crafting materials. Holding them back for "later crafting" serves no purpose; cash them in.
