Follow this link for my video walkthrough and this alternate solution for the second puzzle.*
Move to the brazier in the left corner to get a TORCH.
Step back to the lower right, then forward twice, then to the lower right again to kill one of the 3 snakes.
Step forward onto the pressure pad in the corner. This triggers the 3 arrow traps, but the snake on Lara's left shields her from the arrows.
Climb onto the ledge and smash the vase in the background above the arrow traps to obtain another RUBY (9/17). Then exit through the well-lit doorway.
In the next area, climb the wall to the upper level.
Move two spaces to the right, causing the lizard on the right to sit up and take notice.
Step forward onto the pressure pad between Lara and the lizard to activate the orange arrow traps. The lizard takes the hits, leaving Lara unscathed.
- OR -
Alternatively, instead of stepping on the pressure pad, drop and hang from the ledge. The lizard will then move toward Lara and step on the pressure pad, triggering the arrow traps and killing itself. When it's dead, pull up.
Move to the right to pick up a TORCH from the brazier. While you're standing here, smash the well-concealed vase on the right to get another RUBY (10/17).
Move in a straight line to the left to shoot the first snake sitting near the black arrow traps.
As you do this, the torch frightens the second snake, and it backs into the corner near the lizard. Step toward the snake to shoot it. This also gets the lizard's attention, but since you have the torch, it backs away instead of attacking.
Draw the lizard out by moving back to the lower left, then twice to the lower right. Don't go any farther, or you'll step on the pressure pad and trigger the orange arrow traps.
Once the lizard is standing in near the black arrow traps, move toward it to shoot it with your pistols.
Now approach the SPEAR from the left side and pick it up.
Climb onto the ledge above and use the spear to kill the snake guarding the doorway.
Before leaving this area, be sure to break the vase in the background to the right of the black spear traps to retrieve a fragment of THE BLOOD SALAMANDER relic (4/7).
In the next area, move forward twice to get the lizard's attention.
Push the freestanding pillar toward the wall of arrow traps. As you do this, the lizard moves one space toward Lara.
Move around to the right side of the pillar. The lizard follows, still two spaces behind Lara.
Push the pillar once to the left. Meanwhile the lizard moves once to the right.
Move to the lower right, then left onto the nearest of the 3 pressure pads. This triggers all 4 arrow traps. The pillar protects Lara from the arrows, but the lizard is not so lucky.
Step back to the right, off the pressure pad.
Now pull/push the pillar around to the right, then left, positioning it below and to the right of the middle pressure pad. Take care not to step on any of the pads while you work.
Move down to the lower corner of the ledge. Smash the vase below to retrieve another RUBY (11/17). Then push the pillar two spaces to the upper left.
As you do this, the middle and left pressure pads are depressed, triggering the arrow traps, but the pillar protects Lara from the flying arrows. Now you can move safely to the exit on the left.
†UPDATE HISTORY: 9/12/15 - Walkthrough first posted, along with video.
3/13/17 - Updated the solution for second puzzle, since the original does not work with the PS4/Vita and Steam versions of the game. The original solution is still shown in this video. The new version is in this video. Thanks to Sam C. for letting me know about this and suggesting the alternate solution.
