An Antique Land is a side-quest in the Point Lookout add-on for Fallout 3.

The quest starts aboard the USS Ozymandias, a beached research vessel east of the shore, on a rocky outcropping. Inside the ship, there is a key-locked safe, which can only be unlocked from a nearby terminal. To do this, the Lone Wanderer will need to retrieve three soil samples from various locations across Point Lookout. The quest may also start after running across a muck hole and then picking up one of the holodisks.

Collect the loot contained in the safe. 
Reward: 10 bio-gas canisters 1 Med-X, 3 pre-War money, 3 radiation suits, 2 Rad-X, 2 stimpaks, and 50 XP 

Detailed walkthrough

Collect the soil samples

The soil sample tapes are located within the excavated muck holes. Each hole is surrounded by radioactive muck and feral ghouls. All three are also filled with flammable gas. If entering the muck holes with weapons that give off a constant stream of flame, such as the flamer or heavy incinerator, it will cause for the surrounding area to burst into flames due to the natural gas. Inside each are several bio-gas canisters, and a soil sample contained on a holodisk. Once they are all collected, return to the Ozymandias.

  • Soil sample #1 is inside an excavated muck hole north of the trash heap. (Lower middle of the topmost subdivision row, sixth column on the world map)
  • Soil sample #2 is inside an excavated muck hole 1 block east and slightly north of Lil' Tyke Playhouse. This location is guarded by 2 feral ghouls and a glowing one (a feral ghoul reaver might also be present if Broken Steel is installed, depending on character level).
  • Soil sample #3 is inside an excavated muck hole northwest of the jet crash site.

Unlock the expedition supplies

Each sample will unlock a corresponding entry on the terminal, releasing the safe door. Once all three are entered, the safe opens. Inside the safe are the following:

In addition, 50 XP is awarded for finishing the quest.
