History Channel
91 minutes; original air date: May 18, 2008
Throughout history there have been legendary artifacts that have captured the
imagination of adventurers everywhere. While belief in their existence seems
to fly in the face of reason and science, there have been those who have devoted
their lives to their discovery. One man has looked for some of these remarkable
treasures. He is Indiana Jones--professor of archeology and an adventurer who has
uncovered some of the world's greatest mysteries. But Dr. Jones is just a fictitious
character and it's widely assumed that the artifacts he searched for were also
figments of a writer's imagination. But were they?
