Archeologist Dr Vendyl Jones, who
may or may not be the inspiration for
Indiana Jones, claims to have finally figured out the location of the Holy Ark of the Covenant, which is what Indy was searching for in the first movie.
"The ark was the resting place of the Ten Commandments, given to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai, and was hidden just before the destruction of the First Temple. ...He believes the ark will be discovered by Tisha B'Av (Aug. 14), a day of repeated tragedy in Jewish history. Most notably, it is the anniversary of the destruction of both the First and Second Holy Temples."
