The Chamber of Archives

From Flash Gordon Wiki

The Chamber of Archives is Ming's storehouse of relics taken from all of the cantons on Mongo. Ming has seized the cantons' precious treasures in order to break their spirits, and keep them under his thumb.

Princess Aura believes that Ming collects the items to preserve order, explaining to Flash, "These artifacts encourage primitive thinking." In "Infestation", Aura helps Flash to break into the archives so that he can bring the Urn of Omadria back to the Omadrians, and bargain for a cure for Nick's joybug infection.
