ยกมาส่วนหนึ่งนะครับ
The College Years Following the end of the War, Indiana Jones finally returned to America to continue his studies at the University of Chicago. Having experienced war before his time, Indy found himself older and much worldlier than his fellow classmates.
As a reflex to the death and destruction of the Great War, America in the 1920s was eager to celebrate life. Jones was no different. He embraced the growing popularity of jazz, trying his own hand at the soprano saxophone with such up-and-coming luminaries as Sidney Bechet. These musical contacts led Jones to New York during a break from school in the summer of 1920, where he worked backstage at a Broadway musical and met young George Gershwin. Jones' brief fling with the entertainment industry even brought him to California, where he worked as a stuntman on a John Ford western.
In the 1920s, Jones' academic pursuits were split between his strengths in linguistics and archeology. After having completed his undergraduate degree, Jones moved into a linguistics graduate program at the Sorbonne. There, he was lured by a beautiful archeology professor, Dorian Belecamus. With her, Indy went to Greece to study the Oracle at Delphi. While there, he was drawn into a plot to overthrow King Constantine, a plot Jones was able to thwart. Despite such danger, he realized that archeology would become a lifelong pursuit in his life.
After completing his graduate program, Jones was hired for his first professorial job at London University. The head of the Archeology department, Joanna Campbell, invited Jones to a dig in Whithorn, Scotland, on an expedition to confirm the legend of Merlin. Here, Jones met and became romantically involved with Campbell's daughter, Dierdre. The two traveled together in other archeological pursuits, and tragically, Dierdre Campbell Jones was killed in a plane crash during an expedition to Brazil in April of 1926.
While studying archeology, Jones learned from Professor Abner Ravenwood. The two developed a strong friendship, which Jones destroyed in 1926 by romancing Abner's young daughter, Marion. He would not see her again until a decade later.
The World Returns to War Despite the promised millennium of peace, the world was gearing once again for a globe-enveloping war. As international tensions grew in Europe, Jones was in Asia. In 1935, when attempting to recover the lost ashes of Nurhachi for a family of Chinese gangsters in exchange for a rare diamond, Jones was double-crossed. During his harried escape from Shanghai, his plane crashed in India.
Alongside his traveling companions Willie Scott and Short Round, Jones discovered a surviving Thuggee cult in the caverns beneath Pankot palace. The bloodthirsty cult had kidnapped all the children from the neighboring village of Madripoor, forcing them into slave labor to dig for gems to fund their dark cause. The cult was determined to recover the sacred Sankara stones, mystical rocks with great power that would allow the Kali-worshiping cult to dominate the world. Jones was able to kill the cult leader and free the enslaved children.
The next year, Indiana Jones was contacted by the U.S. government following reports of Adolph Hitler's growing interest in occult antiquities. A French archeologist, Ren้ Belloq, led a German dig in the deserts of Africa. Army Intelligence confirmed that Hitler was in pursuit of the Ark of the Covenant, the sacred chest described in the Bible as being the transport for the Ten Commandments. According to legend, the resting place of the Ark could be determined with a related relic, the headpiece to the Staff of Ra. Its owner, Abner Ravenwood, lived in Nepal, so Jones voyaged there to make amends with his former mentor.
Nazi spies discovered Jones' plans, and attempted to secure the headpiece before he did. They failed, and Indy was reunited with Marion Ravenwood. He learned that Abner had died. Jones and Marion rekindled their turbulent romance during their quest to recover the Ark. They succeeded, transporting the Ark to Washington D.C.. Indiana Jones and his patron, Marcus Brody of the National Museum, were handsomely compensated for the priceless artifact, but the government reneged on its initial promise to allow the museum to keep the Ark.
In 1937, Jones left Marshall College in Connecticut for Barnett College in New York. The following year, wealthy industrialist Walter Donavan contacted Jones. Donavan was funding an archeological expedition to find the Holy Grail, and the venture had stalled when the project leader, Henry Jones Sr., went missing. The elder Jones had been kidnapped by German agents, and Indiana Jones was once again recruited to beat the Nazis in a race for a priceless relic. The Holy Grail was never recovered, but Jones was able to reunite with his father, ending decades of estrangement.
Post War Years Indiana Jones continued to lecture and teach in a variety of higher learning institutes around the world after the 1940s, though records of his adventuring diminished. It is known that in 1950, he attempted to save a sacred Native American relic from falling into the wrong hands in Wyoming, but not much is known after that.
Age and injury may have finally taken their toll on Jones' adventuring days, though he was markedly active in his advanced age. Even in the 1990s, Jones was still lecturing, at the age of 93. Though he needed a cane and wore an eye-patch, Jones still led an independent life, possessed a quick wit, and could recount a lifetime of extraordinary adventures throughout the 20th century.
