The twelve '''Chozo Totems''' in the [[Artifact Temple]] on [[Tallon IV]] are part of a Cipher meant to halt the spread of [[Phazon]] on the planet. When used in conjunction with the [[Chozo Artifact]]s, the Totems open the way to the center of the [[Impact Crater]].<ref name=Clues>{{cite|This is the Artifact of Truth, the first of twelve. Collect it, then scan the Totems here for clues on the locations of the remaining Artifacts.

The Totems are activated once [[Samus Aran|Samus]] retrieves the [[Artifact of Truth]]. Each Totem can then be scanned for clues regarding the location of the other eleven Artifacts.<ref name=Clues/> Once an Artifact is acquired, power is restored to the corresponding Totem.<ref>{{cite|You have restored power to this Chozo Totem.|Scan Data|Metroid Prime}}</ref>

When Samus returns to the Temple with all twelve Artifacts, [[Meta Ridley]] attacks and destroys the Totems, making travel to the Impact Crater impossible. After Meta Ridley's defeat, however, a number of [[Chozo Ghost]]s appear and open the path to the Crater in her behalf.
