Complete Shadow of the Tomb Raider document, mural, relic, map, and backpack locations guide

Murals

Unuratu’s Uprising

Follow the path up the stairs, South-West from the Belly of the Serpent Base Camp. Past the skull wall and through a narrow tunnel, it’s in the next room.

Awaits

In the Head of the Serpent, after breaking through the wall and rappelling down, it’s on the right of the room with the alter in the middle.

First Contact

In what looks like some kind of medical/healing area, the mural is at the far end.

Birth

Go to the top of the village and then hug the wall as you descend to the South. You’ll find the mural here. 

Founding of Paititi

South-west from the two small islands in the water in the village.

The Winged Serpent

After crossing the zipline you make as you approach the prison, it’s right in front of you - don’t miss it, it’s quite camouflaged.

Bound to Wander

This is up near the top of the city, here to the south. It’s not hidden.

God of Learning

The very south of the map, inside the flame-lit room. 

Deadly Earth Mother

Near the water in Paititi’s market, south-east of the bridge.

Mirrors

Inside the Temple Path challenge tomb, as soon as you get inside after the rock climb, it’s at the end of the room on the right, immediately before you get to the Temple of the sun base camp. 

Temple of the Sun

After activating the Temple of the Sun base camp, swing across and rappel down the wall. This mural is at the top of the steps.

The Paddler Gods

Up the steps from Mirror 2 in the Temple of the Sun challenge tomb. 

Unuratu’s Coronation

Approach from lower down the cliff than the nearby base camp. It’s just inside the building here. 

Viracocha

This is in the water in Paititi Village, at the southernmost tip of the water. 

Ancient Aqueduct

In the challenge tomb by the prison, this is through the exit of the cavern with the broken waterwheel. Climb out of the water and go around by the right of this obvious exit to reach it. Once inside, you’ll find this mural. 

Silver-Crowned Mountain

Climb the wall near the Temple District Base Camp and make your way along.

Civil War

While you’re solving Sumaq’s murder in the sidequest, you’ll find this in the hut once you go round the back way and climb up the wall. Or later, of course. 

Ollanta, the Potter

Inside the crypt south of the Jungle Base camp, you eventually come to a fork in the corridor. Head right and you’ll get to a circular room. Make your way safely down to the floor to find this mural. 

Merchant Sacrifice

This is in the circular room in the jungle crypt. Head safely to the floor, then jump up the white painted wall to the first platform. It’s on this ledge.

Amaru’s grip

This document is just a short distance from the Paititi Market base camp. Head north-west, up the steps and into the building to find it on a table. 

Qispi the Merchant

In the crypt, after the two tripwire traps.

Mama Zara

In the Porvenir Oil Fields, after you’ve told Jonah to get off the radio channel. It’s not particularly hidden, so easy to find if you’re backtracking.

Shielding the Serpent

In Paititi’s market, east north-east of the Paititi Market base camp, with a small pool of water in front of it. 

Mother Deity

Next to the Ossuary Base Camp in a Paititi’s challenge tomb (accessible via the King’s Horn side quest). 

Path of Battle

In the challenge tomb by the Ossuary base camp, make your way over the rotating blade along the left wall, then grapple jump to the surface. Rappel down and swing across into the mouth of the cave. This mural is straight ahead. 

Chuki the Weaver

Inside the challenge tomb by the abandoned village. 

Unturunku the Ferryman

Make your way from the Temple of Kukulkan base camp across the cliffs and turn left when you get to the fork. This reveals a crypt and also this mural.
