If you're looking for the Unreal Tournament 2003 and Unreal Tournament 2004 version of the map, you might want to check DM-Antalus (UT200X map).
"Raia Antalus, or Valley of the Hunters, is an ancient meeting place for the warriors of the Gen Mo'Kai. Encamped along the valley floor dozens of warriors would gather in the temple of Iinu to greet the dawn, hoping to draw upon the mystical powers of the kana stone embedded in the rock above them. Over the centuries the temple has fallen into disuse, and through treaties has become a popular venue for tournament events."

Tips and tricks[]
- You can lift jump onto some of the larger rocks.
- Caution is a necessity in this map. Do not walk into the open without knowing where the opponents are. A player without a good knowledge of the map's lay-out, and the lines of sight in the open fields will be easily spotted and shot. Stay out of the open fields and keep a look-out in all directions, both horizontally and vertically.
Prima Official Guide[]
"If you’re looking for straight, well-defined paths and industrial design, look elsewhere. If you’re looking for a map that flows well and keeps the action moving at all times, Antalus is for you.
Plenty of power-ups and weapons are strewn about Antalus. Keep moving and picking up items, if only to keep them out of the hands of others. This is good strategy for staying alive, because you won’t find any corners to hide in.
Deathmatch Strategy
A smart running pattern is key to winning this Deathmatch. First, find your favorite weapon. You’re out of luck if it’s the flak cannon, but plenty of other great weapons are hidden about.
Once you’ve located your weapon and ammo, develop a running pattern that takes you through areas holding super shield, double damage, and health packs.
Because of Antalus’s organic nature, it is sometimes difficult to figure out where things are. Still, you need to know each path and elevator by heart so you can grab what you need quickly. Keep moving and attacking, and keep your eyes open. You’re bound to sneak up behind someone—and they will do the same to you.
Survival Strategy
In Survival, you must control the shield and double damage powerups. If you can do that, you can win almost any one-on-one battle. Make your first move directly for the super shield. Don’t worry immediately about double damage. You can stay out of its way if your opponent grabs it. Then track down the other shield.
With both shields, you have a significant advantage. Push for confrontations, constantly checking to see if the double damage or either of the shield power-ups have respawned. Grab adrenaline and health vials, too. Add 199 health and adrenaline points to maxed-out shields, and you’re talking unbeatable.
Team Deathmatch Strategy
Controlling shield and double damage power-ups is again the key to winning Antalus. One player should focus efforts on holding the super shield. Checking in on the other power-ups can be left to others, but the super shield is too valuable to be left unguarded. Once maxed out on shields, the guard can call teammates to take advantage of the power-up’s respawning.
Single-Player Strategy
Bots love this kind of tight, free-flowing map, so be careful when you hang around the bottom level. In Deathmatch, bot battles are usually short and sweet. Be better armed than your opponent. The rocket launcher is perfect. Grab it if you can.
You can choose to stay on the top level and take out bots from there. They usually have trouble stopping you this way, but watch out for the occasional bot shot from below.
Bots, like real players, try to get power-ups, sometimes running by you in pursuit of health or shield points. Make them pay for their lack of respect.
Sniping Spot
This map has few true sniping spots. If you grab the lightning gun, drop off the ledge to a small platform below. You can hop to another ledge on the side. From this perch, you can hit targets all over the map.
A caveat: If you kill enough enemies, you eventually make yourself a big target.
Kill Zone
The entire map rates as a kill zone, but most heated combat takes place in the super shield room. It’s a junction between three parts of the map. Grab a rocket launcher and plenty of shield power, and make this area your private killing field."
