    The location of the sitemap is often included in robots.txt.

    Some sites (mines included) have sitemaps, but are hidden in different locations than www.site.com/sitemap.xml.
    The location is submitted to search engines but hidden to humans and can't be discovered by a tool if the location is good enough.
