Whether these are Mysterious Shards, Lost Books, Enigmas, or Dervis' Artifacts, it's worth keeping an eye out for them in the game to get the extra rewards.

How get Dervis' Artifacts in Assassin's Creed: Mirage
To find Dervis' Artifacts in Assassin's Creed: Mirage, you will need to approach and pickpocket certain marked NPCs around Baghdad; they will have a gold icon next to their head of a hand above a hexagon.
As you walk around Baghdad, if you get close enough to one of these NPCs, the icon will appear on your compass and they will be permanently marked on the map until you pickpocket them.
The pickpocket window is much narrower than usual, so it can be easy to time it wrong. If you do fail, just run away and come back to reset and try again.
If you're serious about finding all of Dervis' Artefacts, we found it useful to purchase the skill that makes pickpocketing much easier. This increases the margin of error you have while pickpocketing, meaning you're likely to be successful on more occasions.

When you hand over a collection of Artifacts to Dervis, you'll be rewarded with a bunch of materials. The amount of materials that you receive scales with the number of Artifacts you hand over, so it's worth stacking up a bunch of them in your inventory and returning them all at once.
However, bear in mind that you can only hand over Artifacts in batches of three, six, and nine, increasing every time you visit Dervis'.
Once you've collected all of the Dervis Artifacts around Baghdad, you'll also be rewarded with a trophy or achievement, depending on your platform, along with the Treasure Hunter Costume.
