About these 1.19 seeds

Each seed here has an ancient city within 350 blocks of spawn horizontally — dig down carefully into the deep dark and you're there. Ancient cities generate deep underground (the city floor sits around Y -51), so the coordinates on the card are where to dig, not where to walk.

1.19 (The Wild Update) added the deep dark, ancient cities and mangrove swamps to world generation, and 1.19.2 remains a huge modded version. These seeds were verified on 1.19 – 1.19.2 generation itself. Note for 1.19.3 and 1.19.4 players: biome and structure layout is identical there, but 1.19.3 changed stronghold placement, so any stronghold distance on a card can differ on those two patches.

Verified for Java Edition 1.19 – 1.19.2 (The Wild Update) — the line most 1.19 modpacks pin. Biomes and structures match on 1.19.3 – 1.19.4 too, but stronghold positions shift there.

For the current Java 26.3 release, see the main ancient city seeds — or the same list for 26.3 · 1.21.4 · 1.20. All 1.19 lists live under best 1.19 seeds.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the main ancient city seeds page?
These seeds are computed for Java 1.19. The main ancient city seeds list targets Java 26.3. Match the version on the card; older versions can generate different biomes and structure positions.
Which releases do these seeds work on?
Verified on 1.19 – 1.19.2 (including 1.19.2 modpacks). On 1.19.3 – 1.19.4 the biomes and structures generate identically, but stronghold positions shift within their rings — so treat stronghold distances as 1.19 – 1.19.2 numbers.
Do these seeds work on Bedrock Edition?
No — Java and Bedrock generate different worlds from the same seed. These lists are Java Edition only.
