Andrew Sinclair-Harris' article mentions the gold idol from Peru which Jones and Reed fought for being displayed in the museum.
Trivia[]
- The museum being located in California may be a tribute to Disneyland being located in Anaheim.
- The idol donated by Jones was implied to be the Chachapoyan Fertility Idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) though this does not line up with the events of the film where Jones fought René Belloq for it in 1936.
