Treasures of Britain

The Treasures of Britain were a set of thirteen Welsh artifacts dating to the 6th century. In the same period, tablets made from Precursor material and corresponding to twelve of these treasures were hidden throughout Great Britain. The images of each of these treasures were inscribed onto the tablets, and their locations were encoded through clues written in verses. These tablets were keys to a mechanism that secured the thirteenth treasure, the Sword of Eden Excalibur, which was kept within the Isu Barracks under Stonehenge that were accessed via Myrddin's Cave.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
==History==
By the 870s, eleven of the tablets were scattered across Britain, some concealed in various locations and some in the possession of Zealots working for the Order of the Ancients. These tablets were later collected by the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan and brought to the mechanism, where she found the twelfth tablet already in place in order to claim the Sword.

==Behind the scenes==
In actuality, holds that there are thirteen treasures, and does not consider Excalibur to be among their number. Instead, either Rhygenydd the Cleric's Crock and the Dish were considered two separate treasures, or they were seen as two parts of a set while the final treasure was alternately the Mantle of Tegau Eurfon, which would fully clothe a loyal wife, or Eluned's Stone and Ring, which granted its wearer invisibility like Arthur's Mantle.
Furthermore, not all of the treasures date back to Arthurian Britain. Rhydderch Hael was active with his sword 50 years after Arthur, and Morgan Mwynfawr lived nearly 200 years later, making their tablets' inclusion in the locking mechanism anachronistic. Even stranger, the icon for Gwenddoleu's chessboard appears to be a stylized berserkr rook from the which dates to the 12th century, more than 500 years after what is commonly accepted as Arthur's reign.
The game also marks the locations of eight of the tablets with the singular "Treasure of Britain", even though the artifacts themselves do not make an appearance, with in-game dialogue upon finding a treasure suggesting that they might once have been collectable, only to later be cut and replaced with the tablets instead.
