Archiva Vol. 1 is a collection of outtakes and previously unreleased tracks by progressive rock band Asia.

The band had previously completed work on the album Arena in 1995. When they returned to their studio in 1996 they found that a pipe had burst and had ruined thousands of pounds worth of equipment. Despite this a large number of unreleased tracks which had failed to make the previous three albums survived and were quickly considered for a new Asia release.

"I Believe" is not the same track as on the Asia album Omega.
