In the Indiana Jones DLC, “The Order of Giants,” you’ll come across a mural map that requires some investigation. This map shows sacred journeys, the city of Antioch, and certain markings, along with some indentations. To solve the puzzle, you’ll need to take photos and find a hidden compartment. The instructions about this secret part can be a bit unclear, so if you overlook it, you might find yourself stuck without knowing what to do next.
It took me a moment to figure out the Mediterranean map puzzle, but once I did, it became easier. Here’s a straightforward guide to help you complete it.
Right after starting the DLC, you’ll encounter this map challenge. First, take a photo of the entire map—aim for the angle shown here, placing the desk between you and the wall for the best shot.
Next, photograph the inscription that details the Holy Expeditions. To get the right shot, try to match the angle I advise here.
Then, capture a photo of the City of Antioch. This will trigger a comment from Indy about the map’s indentations, which mark various cities. Use the suggested angle to get your picture.
A tricky part is moving the map forward—you need to approach the inscription closely until Indy comments on it. That prompt signals it’s time to interact with it, revealing a hidden compartment.
Inside, you’ll find two small figurines: one of a giant and another of a pope. Based on previous clues, place these figurines at their correct spots on the map:
– The Giant — Antiochenum
– The Pope — Santa Sedes
Locate these positions on the map and position the figurines accordingly. Once both are in place, a secret door will unlock, allowing you to access the Pope’s chambers and continue your investigation.
Why these specific spots? The giant’s position is straightforward since it’s directly mentioned when viewing the map. The pope’s position is a bit more subtle; although there’s a reference to The Holy See, there’s no direct mention of “Santa Sedes” in Italian, but that’s the correct solution. Placing the figurines in these spots opens the way forward.
Before moving on, be sure to check upstairs to find a safe for the Collegial Mystery, which you can open as part of your ongoing puzzle-solving.
Remember, after positioning the figurines correctly, the hidden door will open, and your adventure can continue.
