Start by excavating Common and Uncommon artefacts of all sizes in every available Dig Site. Submit one of every new artefact in the Museum tab to obtain milestone rewards. Prioritize discovering new Dig Sites in Cartography instead of getting the Rare, Very Rare, and Legendary items, unless they are items which unlock other Dig Sites or are desirable for other Skills.
Until {{Skill|Cartography}} is completed, it is recommended to start by excavating Common and Uncommon artefacts of all sizes in every available {{Icon|Dig site}}. Submit one of every new artefact in the Museum tab to obtain milestone rewards. Prioritize discovering new {{Icon|Dig site|Dig sites}} in {{Skill|Cartography}} instead of getting the Rare, Very Rare, and Legendary items, unless they are items which unlock other {{Icon|Dig site|Dig sites}} or are desirable for other Skills.
 
In general, higher level sites offer more XP per item found, but the strategy is to spend time excavating on sites that unlock other {{Icon|Dig site|Dig sites}}, or that provide a good secondary reward. For example, here are some suggestions of sites  that will help improve excavating speeds:
