The '''Ancient Seed''' is an [[Artifacts|Artifact]] that can be found by digging up an [[Artifact Spot]] in [[Cindersap Forest]] or [[The Mountain]] (including the [[Quarry]]), or obtained inside [[Artifact Trove]]s, or [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|Fishing Treasure Chests]] after reaching [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|Fishing level 2]]. It can be dropped from [[Bug]]s, [[Grub]]s, [[Cave Fly|Cave Flies]], [[Mutant Fly|Mutant Flies]], and [[Mutant Grub]]s (0.5% chance).

The only productive use of the first Ancient Seed artifact found is to donate it to the [[Museum]]. The item contributes to the total count of Museum donations.
