This allows you to play either a Monument or an Artifact card
If you play a Monument, discard cards from your hand equal to its cost or it may be free. Place it in the numbered space indicated by the circle. Place a number of knowledge tokens on it equal to the Knowledge symbol. If it has an instant effect, apply as much as possible. A monument can be played in a space other than where it wishes as long as it does not contain the lock symbol, and you discard extra cards equal to the difference between where it wants to be and where you want to put it e.g. if it's a 4 and you want it in space 6, discard an extra 2 cards. For each numbered area, place your first monument on the lower space, and your second monument on the upper space, you cannot have a third monument for each numbered space. If you have two monuments in a numbered space, and the lower monument is removed due to some effect, slide the upper monument down so it becomes the new lower monument. Any effects which mention adjacency only affect orthogonal adjacency.
If you play an Artifact, play it in one of your 5 starting artifact spaces on your player board. Once all 5 spaces are taken, you cannot play more artifacts until some effect gives you an empty space again.

This allows you to play either a Monument or an Artifact card

If you play a Monument, discard cards from your hand equal to its cost or it may be free. Place it in the numbered space indicated by the circle. Place a number of knowledge tokens on it equal to the Knowledge symbol. If it has an instant effect, apply as much as possible. A monument can be played in a space other than where it wishes as long as it does not contain the lock symbol, and you discard extra cards equal to the difference between where it wants to be and where you want to put it e.g. if it's a 4 and you want it in space 6, discard an extra 2 cards. For each numbered area, place your first monument on the lower space, and your second monument on the upper space, you cannot have a third monument for each numbered space. If you have two monuments in a numbered space, and the lower monument is removed due to some effect, slide the upper monument down so it becomes the new lower monument. Any effects which mention adjacency only affect orthogonal adjacency.

If you play an Artifact, play it in one of your 5 starting artifact spaces on your player board. Once all 5 spaces are taken, you cannot play more artifacts until some effect gives you an empty space again.
