As in all previous chapters in the series, Assassin's Creed: Odyssey will have many, many collectables to find. Among them, the most difficult are undoubtedly Ainigmata Ostraka. These are stone tablets with inscriptions, which will contain a riddle about a treasure to be found. By solving the riddle contained in the first inscription, you will arrive at a new puzzle that will bring you even closer to the final reward.
Needless to say, if you want to get your hands on the most powerful weapons and armor in this new Assassin's Creed, you'll need to find all the Ainigmata Ostraka and solve their riddles. In this guide, we will tell you the exact location of all the stone tablets in question and, of course, how to solve the riddles.
Assassin's Creed: Odyssey - how and where to find Ainigmata Ostraka
Let's start by saying that finding the Ainigmata Ostraka will not be difficult at all. In fact, all you need to do is find a synchronization point and press the button to do it to see a whole series of points of interest appear on the game map. However, unlike previous incarnations of the franchise, in this case we'll never know what those points of interest are until we get close enough. We won't have so many different markers depending on the point of interest found, but only so many question marks; it's up to us to explore the game map and find the stone slabs in question. Fortunately, this activity will not take you long.
However, solving riddles is a whole other ball game. On some occasions, in fact, the clues will be all too clear, even indicating where you will have to go; in other situations, however, you will be given very vague indications, and you will have to fend for yourself, relying solely and exclusively on your deductive skills. The Ainigmata Ostraka present in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey are more than 20 and, below, we will list the position of each of them, dividing them by zones, as well as the ways to solve puzzles.
We remind our readers that the guide in question is constantly being updated. Precisely for this reason, we advise you to come back and visit us again, so that you don't miss an update.
Assassin's Creed: Odyssey - All the Ainigmata Ostraka present in Kefalonia
On the island of Kefalonia you will find three Ainigmata Ostraka.
#1 Bottomless Lake
WHERE: The first puzzle will begin with the search for a tombstone in the cave of Melissani, located north of the main island of Kefalonia. In the underground lake inside the cave you will find the stone tablet.
ENIGMA: Taking the plunge? Everyone on the island thinks this is the deepest dive, but there is a lake in the Coast of Koliadai that is rumored to be bottomless. If you are able to dive as far as the woman in marble, you will be able to claim me.
SOLUTION: If you open the map, you will notice that there is only one lake on the whole island, so this is the easy part of the riddle. Once you get there, climb the cliff on the southwest side of the lake. You should find, on your left, a marble column sticking out of the water. Jump into the water and keep diving until you see a marble statue of a woman on your left. Interact with it and complete the puzzle.

#2 Enigma: Ashes to Ashes
WHERE: the next stone tablet is hidden in Marko's vineyard on the slopes of Mount Ainos in Kefalonia, not far from the center of the island.
ENIGMA: When times are bad, it can be easy to turn away from the gods. Go to the burned temple in Kausos Village, in teh Cursed Valley of Pali. I can be found in a pile of burning ashes, where a worshipping man left his post to being his new life as a pirate.
SOLUTION: Once you have obtained the stone tablet, go to the burnt-out village of Kausos. You will find it along the coast, southeast of the Marko vineyard. Once there, you should locate the temple north of the village. Approach it and enter from the north side. You will notice a pile of smoking rubble in the middle of the room.

SOLUTION: The place where you will have to go is also located on the island of Ithaca, more precisely in the northern part of the island. If you follow the road from the palace, you will come across the Melathios' Goat Farm at some point. Coming from the south, approach the first building on the right.

SOLUTION: To find the treasure, go down to the beach and look for the ships that have been dragged ashore.

SOLUTION: After grabbing the stone tablet, head west along the peninsula. Once you reach the suggested location, you will see a large lake near the beach.

ENIGMA: It's dangerous outside, so I'm waiting out the war. The only time I go outside this cave is to replenish my cup. Once I leave, I travel northwest from the battelfield in the Occupied Forest of Tripodisks. Find me at the altar of offerings at the feet of the wine god himself.
SOLUTION: The battlefield mentioned in the clue at your disposal is the Megaris Battlefield, which is located right next to the cave.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey - Ainigmata Ostraka Guide to Fokida
#7 Pressed for time
WHERE: The first tablet we came across was in Fokida, in the place where the monument of Prometheus and the birth of humanity is located. You will see a couple of tents next to the monuments, and a pile of stone bricks. The tablet will be on the ground.
ENIGMA: If you slip beside the Leader's house in Pilgrim's Landing, you can find me in a large bowl of olives.
SOLUTION: As soon as you get the stone tablet with the clue, go south of Pilgrim's Landing. The chief's house will be at the eastern end of the town.

FILL: +2% Elemental Resistance.
#8 A Specific General
WHERE: The tablet is hidden east of Phocis, at the Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia. In the main temple, east of the place in question, you will find the Ainigmata Ostraka next to the bronze statue of Athena, goddess of wisdom.
ENIGMA: With so much to see in Delphi, it may be hard to find me. I'm sitting at the plinth of the only bronze statue holding a spear and sword. This great general is among seven of his peers.
SOLUTION: After grasping the stone tablet, head northwest until you reach the Sanctuary of Delphi. Once there, you will find dozens of statues around the city, but don't be discouraged: the clue, in fact, has given you very clear instructions. The statue you are looking for is surrounded by six other statues, and represents a man holding both a spear and a sword. It is practically a unique statue among those you will find, so you can't get confused. You will find it in the southeastern part of the city, in a semi-circular area called the Monument of the Epigons. It is the second statue from the left. The treasure will be in the basket of petals in front of the statue.
ENIGMA: +1 seconds of Intoxication status.
#9 Enigma: Finger Tip
WHERE: what we are about to describe to you is one of the most difficult to solve Ainigmata Ostraka. You'll find the tablet you're looking for at Desphina Fort, in the northwest corner of the Hill of Sacred War area in Fokida. Go west of the fort and when you find a statue of a man wrapped in a golden snake, look for an altar right next to it.
ENIGMA: In the Valley of the Snake lies a giant half buried. From where his mossy finger points, head North to the peak where I can be found.
SOLUTION: The first half of this puzzle is pretty easy to solve. Snake Valley is the area immediately northeast of Hill of Sacred War. If you travel northeast from Desphina Fortress in the Valley of the Serpent, you will encounter the synchronization point called Satyr's Respire. However, while discovering the map to the east, you'll notice the half-buried giant on the map quite easily, especially if you zoom in. It is, basically, a huge statue of a man whose entrails are eaten by vultures (presumably Prometheus). The place where it is located is called Tomb of Tityos.
Now, the hard part's coming up. "From where his moss is pointing, head north to the top where I can be found." Basically, from where the statue is, you have to head north, so don't follow the direction indicated by his fingers. Go north and start climbing the cliffs nearby.
The only problem with this riddle is that the solution is not even found in the area of the Snake Valley, but it is much further north, in the region of the Great Mount Parnassus. You'll have to climb to the top of one of the mountain peaks which, unfortunately, don't have a real name; luckily, you won't have any difficulty locating them, as you'll just have to continue, basically, in a straight line to the North. Just watch out for wolves and bears that are likely to attack you up there.
FILL: +2% Damage inflicted by heavy weapons.
#10 Enigma: Red Scent
WHERE: This stone tablet is located in the Cape House in the Locride area, more specifically in the northeast corner of Red Lake Bay. You will find it on the ground, next to a table on the pier at the back of the house.

SOLUTION: Head towards Red Lake Bay, dive into the natural pool that you will find by looking at the game map, dive and you will find your reward on the right, on the floor of the underwater tunnel.
FILL: 12% damage with Adrenaline skills.

SOLUTION: The clue contained within this ainigmata ostraka will be quite direct, like many of its "predecessors". The temple of Hephaestus is located southwest of the Scarred Mountains of Pentelikos, in the area of Greater Athens. And, yes, the location of the treasure mentioned in this stone tablet is south of the temple now mentioned. What the clue forgets to mention is that it is located at the top of the Areophagus, a point of interest in the central-eastern part of the region.

You will not fail to recognize that you have arrived at your destination due to a rather disturbing scene. The area has several statues of goats and people impaled on wooden spikes. Near the entrance to the cave, and to the right, you will see the goat with blood on its face. It stands out from all the others in the area.
