With the release of the 1.19 Wild Update, the eerie underground ruins known as Ancient City and the Deep Dark biome were also included. Minecraft players would frequently want to visit this location for its many resources, despite the danger. To kick off the year with an adventure, let’s explore some of the best Bedrock and Java Edition Ancient City seeds for the Minecraft 1.19 update for the period of January 2023.
1. Outpost Guarded Ancient City Seed

This month’s Ancient City seed list starts with a striking screenshot from u/Noh_D. As seen above, there is a Pillager Outpost guarding a mountain, which is an entry (X:-125 Y:106 Z:7) into a Cave with an Ancient City and Mineshaft inside.
