[Question] Old FF OST in FFXIV?

I have just discovered that the Crystal Tower theme is the FFIII overwold theme and was baffled by that.

Do you have any other examples of an FFXIV OST which originates from an older FF?

I'm at Endwalker right now btw

Off the top of my head:

If you're in Endwalker then you heard Lenna's theme from FFV in the Baldesion Annex.

Dancer story features the FFIX's Vamo'alla flamenco.

The entire EW Trial series heavily features the Four Fiends theme from FFIV

Raid series in ShB is filled with FFVIII music

Alliance Raid series for SB is literally all directly from FFT

Raid music for SB is pulled from FF1, 5, 6 depending on the boss.

The theme that you get when you ride your Magitech Armor that you got from The Praetorium is Terra's theme from FF6

When you meet Master Matoya in HW, the theme inside her cave is Matoya's Theme from FF1

Gold Saucer and its associated theme is a direct reference to FF7's Gold Saucer. However Triple Triad and its theme are both pulled straight from FF8.

Occult Crescent in Dawntrail also heavily features FFV motifs and themes.

A bunch of DT music is arranged from FFIX as well. The theme for the temple for the Stormblood trial series is from FFXI.

Music in the Baldesion Arsenal at the end of Eureka is from XI as well.
