The '''Tomb of the Ancients secret''' refers to an unnamed secret area found in the [[Tomb of the Ancients]] in ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It is known to be accessible in the PC, Nintendo 64, Sega Dreamcast and the [[Rayman 3D|Nintendo 3DS]] versions of the game. In the [[Rayman DS|Nintendo DS]], [[Rayman 2 (iOS)|iOS]] and [[Rayman Revolution|PlayStation 2]] versions the hidden area is available, but can't be accessed, either due to the respective buttons not being available to press or because the cheat was disabled. In the [[Rayman 2 (PlayStation)|PlayStation version]] it does not appear at all. In the Dreamcast and [[Rayman 3D|3DS]] versions, three [[List of cheats in Rayman 2|cheats]] are given to the player in the secret area.

If successful, a puff of dust will appear on [[Rayman]]'s left and a wooden crate will materialise. [[Rayman]] can then climb onto the crate, and use it to reach a previously inaccessible tunnel whose entrance is hidden in the shadows high on the wall. The walls of the tunnel are decorated with the engraved coffins and [[skull]]s typical of the level. At the very end of the tunnel, [[Rayman]] encounters an impassable net, but the player is treated to a unique view: a small forested glade with a campfire at its center lies beyond the net, and surrounding it are two [[baby Globox]]es playing stones as if they were drums, a [[Grand Minimus]] dancing, and another large character, being a depiction of Jef, can be seen playing a guitar. The scene is very similar to the one shown during ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'''s end credits, which may have been based on it.

In the [[Rayman 3D|3DS]] version, the area itself is accessible. The net can be breached due to [[List of glitches in Rayman 2|a glitch]] where the player can get through the bottom right corner. [[Rayman]] must keep trying to walk into the right corner between the net and wall until he starts glitching. Eventually [[Rayman]] will glitch through the corner of the net and fall into the secret area.

==[[List of cheats in Rayman 2|Cheats]]==
In the Dreamcast and [[Rayman 3D|3DS]] versions, as [[Rayman]] makes his way through the tunnel, he will come across three [[Robo-Pirate]] signs, one after another, each bearing a different message. The first sign says ‘To gain life points, try to shoot on a bridge’, the second says ‘To gain 3 [[Power Fist|Mega-Shoots]], try to jump under a well’, and the third says ‘To recover full life, try to push a tree’. Each of three messages [[Rayman]] reads as he makes his way through the secret tunnel in the [[Tomb of the Ancients]] is in fact a cryptic clue to one of three [[List of glitches in Rayman 2|cheat]] codes which [[Rayman]] can activate in various locations throughout the game. It is not necessary to enter the secret area and read the messages in order to use these [[List of glitches in Rayman 2|cheats]]; however, they only function in the Dreamcast version of the game and its derivatives, the [[Rayman 3D|3DS]] and [[Rayman 2 (iOS)|iOS]] versions. In [[Rayman 2 (iOS)|the iOS version]], this area cannot be accessed due to the lack of buttons, but the [[List of cheats in Rayman 2|cheats]] function properly. The words do not flash across the screen when these [[List of cheats in Rayman 2|cheats]] are used in [[Rayman 2 (iOS)|the iOS version]].
