  3. 3Check with the Archaeologist Compass

    On the map, use the Archaeologist Compass. “We're getting closer!”: it's not the right map. “The Spot Marked With the X”: you're there, and five crosses appear on the ground.

  4. 4Dig with the Archaeologist Shovel

    Stand on a cross and use the Archaeologist Shovel. At the wrong spot, you get a Dirt Patty or a Sandy Patty; start again on another cross until you find the Fossilised Amber.
