Kudos

Kudos are reward points for helping the staff in the Varrock Museum. The amount of kudos determine if you can participate in a later dig on an island in Morytania. The Varrock Museum minigame has a maximum of 153 kudos. In common use kudos are tokens of recognition. There are 3 different ways for obtaining kudos.

Cleaning Finds
One of the ways to earn kudos is by cleaning finds from the digsite. In order to do this, you must have first completed The Digsite quest. There are 5 artifacts in total that you can clean in order to earn kudos. Other useless artifacts such as pots and old arrow tips can be traded for prizes in the artifact boxes. Most of these prizes are worthless except for the antique lamps which grant 500 experience points to a skill of your choice.

Monster/Animal Exhibits
The easiest way to earn kudos is to go into the museum's lower floor, and answer quiz questions on various creatures in RuneScape.
