Of course it's always in the last place you look, you wouldn't keep looking after you found it!
I have gotten this achievement, and maxed out to 525, but as I look at the races on my Archeology tab, I notice there are 10, and only 9 count toward the achievement. The one I see greyed out looks like a guy wearing a fishing hat wielding a pickaxe and a shovel... It's to the right of the Vrykul picture. What is this?
