In regards to the last installation of the Indiana Jones trilogy
it has been my estimate that there was some definite sketched story backgrounds of the real life story of Hiram Bingham
and his search for Vilcabamba
which he (re)discovered in 1911, believing though that he had found Machu Picchu.
(note: like the Indy character in Crystal Skull Bingham also turned to military and politics as a way of life)
Guy named Roy Chapman Andrews though is also speculated as the person Indy Jones is based.
Douglas Eugene "Gene" Savoy is also supposed to be "the real Indiana Jones".
