Anthropology Desk is a loot table in Project Zomboid Build 42. The game rolls it 4 times when it fills a container, picking from 25 entries plus a junk list rolled 1 times.
Chance is each entry's weight as a share of the whole list, per roll.
The most common entries are Small Brush, Magnifying Glass, Specimen Case - Minerals, Knapping Tool, Carving I: "Beginners Carving".
Figures on this page are read from the Build 42 game files (42.22, November 2026). Chances are relative weights inside each loot table, not exact drop rates. Your game is the final word: if it disagrees with us, tell us and we will fix the page.
