The Ancient Chest is a structure exclusive to Don't Starve Together, naturally spawning in the Ruins next to an Ancient Pseudoscience Station. It works similar to a Chest, but has 6 slots instead of 9, and cannot be destroyed. Its use is to input items to receive Replica Relic Blueprints, or solve the Metheus Puzzles.

When inserting items, the chest will rumble about for 5 seconds, then will open and either spit out the items that had been inserted if the order was incorrect, or consume the items and spit out the Blueprint if it was correct. If the Metheus Puzzles were solved, the chest will consume the items and not open. A notice on the top of one's screen will state: Metheus has taken heed.

Players can craft Replica Relics in the Decorations Filter. To obtain the rare Blueprints required to prototype them, one has to insert a specific combination of items into the Ancient Chest and close it. The items must be placed into the chest in the precise order as shown, and will be consumed in the process. The valid combinations and crafting recipes for the Replica Relics are listed below:
