The Seat of Eternity is a mystery found while exploring Gizeh in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. The mystery is actually part of the Riddles of the Ancients, as after solving the Canopic Jars puzzle you will receive an Ancient Relic as a reward.

Completing the mystery in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is not necessary, nor does it affect the main story. In fact, you can ignore it completely, but it does reward some Adventure Points, which are necessary to unlock new skills for Indy.

How To Solve The Seat Of Eternity Mystery In Indiana Jones And The Great Circle

Head northwest from the Great Sphinx to find a small hill with square-shaped holes. Jump into the hole to find yourself in a tomb with a sealed sarcophagus. There is a paper next to the sarcophagus that you can read to find out more about the mystery.

But to trigger the Seat of Eternity, pick up the nearby Falcon Canopic Jar and place it on one of the pressure plates to start the Seat of Eternity mystery. Indy needs to find all the missing Canopic Jars and place them on the correct pressure plates.

Go out of the sarcophagus room and turn left to find a hole. Jump inside to find the Human Canopic Jar and a heavy metal weapon. Throw both of the items to the higher platform, then look up and use the whip to climb up. Place the Jar in front of the mural with a Human Canopic Jar on it.

Grab the weapon you threw previously and destroy the cracked wall found on the right side, outside the sarcophagus room. Enter and grab the Baboon Canopic Jar, then place it on the pressure plate in front of the matching mural.

Head to the same hole you got the weapon from, but this time, use the whip to swing to the other side. Open the door on the left by pulling the hook with the whip and grab the Jackal Canopic Jar. Return to the sarcophagus and place it in front of the mural with the destroyed head.

Finally, grab the Falcon Canopic Jar which you previously placed randomly, and place it in front of the correct mural.

To summarize, in the sarcophagus room, place the Human, Falcon, Jackal, and the Baboon Canopic Jars from left to right. Shortly after the puzzle is solved, the sarcophagus will unlock, revealing an Ancient Relic, ending the Seat of Eternity mystery and rewarding Indy with 225 Adventure Points.
