Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle Hints
Once the seal is whole again, where do I need to put it?
1 of 16: Somewhere in the main dig site in the center of the stone circle.
2 of 16: Move around the circle until you can face the trench in the center mound.
3 of 16: That can be done from next to the Henrick stone.
4 of 16: Turn and face the trench, then click the Zoom In cursor on it for a close-up.
5 of 16: Now you need to dig a bit.
6 of 16: The trench has a spade stuck in it when viewed from a distance, but it disappears when you get close. Creepy!
7 of 16: So use the good old trowel.
8 of 16: Click on the trowel in inventory to dig up a large, round stone depression identical to the one on the altar stone.
9 of 16: If you have the restored seal in your inventory, this depression will crumble, dropping you into the barrow chamber beneath.
10 of 16: NOTE: If you were to dig up the depression and put the three artifact fragments into it, you'd get the game's "bad" ending, which is basically a totally incomprehensible FMV sequence.
11 of 16: In the barrow chamber, look around for a place to put the restored seal.
12 of 16: You landed right next to it.
13 of 16: Check out the large central table-like structure.
14 of 16: Zoom in on it until you get a close-up of yet another large, round stone depression.
15 of 16: That's the spot!
16 of 16: Click on the restored seal in inventory to put it into the depression. All done!
