Abstract:
which documents the generally negative portrayal or archaeologists in films from the 1920s. Archaeologists tend to be obsessive and hard-drinking and/or eccentric and out of touch with reality; desecrate tombs and unleash ancient curses; engage in treasure-hunting; and develop blatantly racist anthropological theories. Women are rarely given leading roles as serious archaeologists in films and the Indiana Jones trilogy seems to be inspired by the experiences of real nineteenth-century treasure-hunting antiquarians
