Can't remember for sure, but I think it is in the east souch east area.

I was hopeful and excited - this was a questling I had not done in the current playthrough. So, I searched for and found the dead templar, took the phylactra to Enchantress Ellandra at the Crossroads, recruited her into the Inquisition, and went and checked some artifacts .....

And BTW, I'm playing on the PC platform, up-to-date patch installed.

    Indeed Eureka! The required quest is "Measuring the Veil" [Inner Circle, Solas] that is required before any other artifacts can be activated.
    Thanks for your help!
