An '''archaeologist''' (colloquially, '''archeos''') is a member of the Maze Personnel who is employed by the Game Masters to explore less controlled areas of the Mazes, particularly the outside areas, but generally any unpopulated or less regulated rooms. Archaeologists know about religious legends concerning the [[Cardinal Gods]], the '''youkai''' and are knowledgeable in mythology in general, allowing them to know what a mythical creature is and what might be their traits.

The work of archaeologist in the Mazes allow them to access areas usually restricted, such as the &quot;far lands&quot; of outside areas, otherwise unreachable by contestants due to the presence of a [[mazeworld's layout|force field]]. When investigating in outside areas, archaeologists are tasked to report about what they find that could be useful for the mazes; creatures, resources, treasures, anything useful. In a way, they are the scouts of Mazeworld's untamed areas; this is what defined their reputation as adventurers.
