I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name? This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given. |

He who increaseth knowledge, increaseth sorrow. This article contains spoilers, meaning it has information and facts concerning recent or upcoming releases from the Assassin's Creed series. If you do not want to know about these events, it is recommended to read on with caution, or not at all. |

Patience, brothers. Soon we will reveal the secrets of Assassin's Creed: Odyssey and Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. This article has been identified as being out of date. Please update the article to reflect recent releases and then remove this template once done. |
An Isu map is a map projected by or derived from Precursor relics or knowledge. Many pinpoint the locations of Isu temples and artifacts.
Apple of Eden

This map was projected by an Apple of Eden after the Levantine Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad killed his Mentor, Al Mualim.[1] It was also seen by the Templars running Abstergo Industries, who had kidnapped Desmond Miles and put him in the Animus to view his genetic memories.[2]
Altaïr's Codex

After seeing the Apple's holographic globe, Altaïr hid a projection of it in the pages of his Codex that could only be seen once all thirty pages were arranged in a 6-x-5 grid and were looked at using Eagle Vision. After being lost at sea,[3] the Codex pages were recovered by the young Italian Assassin Ezio Auditore, who used the secret map to reveal the location of the Vatican Vault, as well as several others across the world.[4]
Abstergo's collection

In 2012, Abstergo distributed some maps concerning various Isu locations to Templar agents participating in the second stage of the Animi Training Program. These included a map drawn by Piri Reis, the Becker-Hagens planetary grid map, and an updated map about possible Isu vaults.[5]
Voynich Manuscript

An illustrated codex written in the Isu script, the Voynich manuscript also contained a map detailing information on the location of the Koh-i-Noor diamond. In 1839, the Mentor of the Indian Assassins, Hamid, tasked Arbaaz Mir with recovering the map in an attempt to prevent the artifact from falling into the hands of the British Templars.[6]
Precursor Boxes

Precursor boxes, also known as Isu Data Caches, occasionally projected maps when powered up. In 422 BCE, the Spartan misthios Kassandra encountered many of these boxes in the simulated city of Atlantis during her trials to master the powers of the Staff of Hermes Trismegistus, although she did not realize the maps' significance.[7]
In July 1754, the Colonial Assassins Hope Jensen and Shay Cormac assisted the inventor Benjamin Franklin in his experiment to conduct electricity into the box. After three attempts, a holographic projection of the world was emitted, revealing the locations of several Seismic Temples, including one in Haiti and another in Portugal. Unfortunately, the process to view the map was laborious, requiring perfect storm conditions and much scientific equipment, forcing the Assassins to quickly note the Temple locations in case they were unable to open the box again.[8] By October 1759, however, the Colonial Assassins had found a way to replicate Franklin's experiment,[9] allowing them to power the box and review the location of a third Temple in the Arctic.[10]

In 1841, another Precursor box projected a map in the Tosha Khana Temple beneath Maharaja Ranjit Singh's summer palace. After having stolen the Koh-i-Noor, the Master Templar William Sleeman and a force of Templars in the British Army invaded the palace to access the underground Temple. Once in the Temple, Sleeman used the diamond in conjunction with a box to reveal a map pointing to a temple in Herat, Afghanistan. When Arbaaz confronted Sleeman, the Templar shot at him but missed, disturbing the complex and leading to its destruction.[11]
Siwa Vault

The Siwa Vault beneath the Temple of Amun housed a projection of the globe. In 47 BCE, Flavius Metellus and Lucius Septimius, members of the Order of the Ancients, successfully unlocked the vault using Alexander the Great's personal Staff of Eden and an Apple stolen from Apollodorus. Once inside, they saw the projection before leaving to Cyrene and Alexandria, respectively, to continue the Order's work.[12]
Gateway to the Lost City

Between 429 and 422 BCE, this map was activated in the Gateway to Atlantis in Thera by Kassandra after retrieving four Atlantis artifacts from creatures of mythology. Following the direction of her father Pythagoras, Kassandra placed the artifacts into their corresponding pillars, which then activated a large holograph of the world and a narration.[13]
Staff of Hermes Trismegistus
In 422 BCE, while in the Tomb of Phaiax on Korfu, the Isu Aletheia triggered the Staff of Hermes Trismegistus in Kassandra's possession to display a map of the globe, depicting the vaults around the world holding at least one Isu artifacts within. Aletheia gave Kassandra the mission to dedicate her life and track down the vaults displayed on the map and prevent them from falling into the hands of the humans.[14]
