The '''Assassin's Tombs''' were seven tombs hidden by members of the [[Assassins|Assassin's Order]], with six across northern [[Italy]] between 1290 and 1476 A.D, and one in the Turkish city of [[Constantinople]] prior to 1512 A.D. The tombs, created as dedications to the lives of their residents, held the bodies of seven legendary Assassins that were exhumed and moved from their previous burial sites.
 
Each crypt contained a wealth of treasure, and a statue of the Assassin who lay within the tomb. Inside each of the six Italian tombs lay an [[Assassin's Seal]], which, when brought together with the other five, unlocked a secure gate in the [[Sanctuary]], beneath the [[Villa Auditore]]; that held the [[Armor of Altaïr]].
 
The Turkish tomb located in the [[Ottoman Empire]] contained the [[Armor of Ishak Pasha]], who was an Ottoman general and secret Assassin.
 
==Location of the tombs==
The six Italian tombs were hidden within various churches and landmarks across a number of towns and cities in northern Italy; namely [[Florence]], [[Venice]], [[San Gimignano]] and [[Forlì]].
 
The Turkish tomb was only located once all of [[Ishak Pasha]]'s memoir pages were discovered and collected by the Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], during his time in Constantinople.
 
===Firenze and San Gimignano===
There were three tombs within the region of [[Tuscany]]. The first was located within the catacombs of the [[Santa Maria Novella]], and was discovered by the Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] in 1478. This tomb was the resting place of [[Darius]], slayer of [[Xerxes I of Persia]].
 
The second lay in the [[Santa Maria del Fiore]], within the lanterna above the building's domed top. Here rested [[Iltani]], who was responsible for the death of [[Alexander the Great]].

The third tomb was within San Gimignano, and was built atop the [[Torre Grossa]], although entrance to the tomb was only possible by passing through the city's Palazzo Comunale below. This tomb was the resting place of [[Wei Yu]], who had assassinated the Emperor of China, [[Qin Shi Huang]].
 
===Forlì and Venezia===
Within the territories of [[Romagna]] and the Venetian lagoon, three more tombs were built. In Forlì, beneath the [[Rocca di Ravaldino]], lay the tomb of [[Qulan Gal]], the deathbringer of [[Genghis Khan]].
 
In Venice lay two more; within the [[San Marco District (Venice)|district of San Marco]], beneath the eponymous named [[Basilica di San Marco]] rested [[Amunet]], who had been responsible for the death of [[Cleopatra]]. The final tomb was beneath the [[Santa Maria della Visitazione]], which held the body of [[Leonius]], killer of [[Caligula]].
 
===Monteriggioni===
Built in [[Monteriggioni]] during the late 13<sup>th</sup> Century, the [[Auditore Family Crypt]] was constructed by [[Domenico Auditore]] to serve as the resting place of Domenico and his son. The story of Domenico's life was inscribed across the walls along the pathway, from the main entrance until the crypt itself.
 
===Constantinople===
Hidden away within the upper sections of the [[Hagia Sophia]], the tomb of the Assassin Ishak Pasha lay, whose legacy consisted of slaying the Wallachian voievod [[Vlad Tepes]], and bringing his head and sword to be held in one of Constantinople's dungeons.
 
==Armor of Altaïr==
[[File:Zw-ezio-and-altairs-armor.png|thumb|250px|Ezio obtaining the Armor of Altaïr]]
{{Main|Armor of Altaïr}}
Obtaining all Assassin's Seals unlocked Altaïr's armor, the highest quality of armor obtainable. Altaïr created the armor using the [[Apple of Eden]] to be invulnerable towards many weapons and dangers. Dyes are not visible upon the armor, save on the inside of the hood.
 
This armor was later buried in the rubble of Villa Auditore during the [[Siege of Monteriggioni]], when [[Cesare Borgia]] ordered an attack on the small town.
 
==Armor of Ishak Pasha==
{{Main|Armor of Ishak Pasha}}
 
Uncovered by the Assassin Ezio Auditore sometime around 1512, the Armor of Ishak was similar to the Armor of Altaïr in that it was also an unbreakable armor set  and was unaffected by dyes.
