Ancient gravel is a type of soil that is found while excavating at the Kharid-et Dig Site, which requires at least level 5 Archaeology, or at Senntisten Dig Site, which is available from level 60.

It can be screened with level 5 Archaeology at the screening station at the Archaeology Campus to obtain materials and rarely artefacts from the soil. Alternatively, the soil may be screened with the Sift Soil spell in the Lunar Spellbook.

Screening ancient gravel yields 1 Archaeology experience each from level 5 to 37, which increases to 3 experience each from level 38 to 70, 5 experience each from level 71 to 92, 12 experience each from level 93 to 110 and 20 experience each from level 111 to 120.
