BA in History and a BA in Anthropology?
You can be an archaeologist who divides his time between teaching at prestigious colleges and universities, and field work - generally involving the "obtaining of rare antiquities".
Imagine yourself in the Peruvian jungle, braving several booby traps to retrieve the Hovito Idol from an ancient temple. Your guide, Doctor Otto Octavius, abandons you. After escaping a rolling boulder, you find your rival, archaeologist Rev. Philip Shooter of Sanford, waiting outside the cave with a small group of Hovitos, the local natives. Surrounded and outnumbered, you are forced to give up the artifact but manage to escape. Back in the U.S., you meet with two Army intelligence agents who explain that the N. Koreans, in their quest to gain occult power, are searching for your former mentor. You surmise that the N. Koreans are looking for your mentor because he possesses the headpiece to the Staff of Ra, a key artifact which is essential in calculating the Ark of the Covenant's final resting place. Your colleague Coleman explains that, according to legend, the power of the Ark can make any army invincible.
You then fly to Nepal, only to find your mentor has died and Boon's fed-up and not-exactly-faithful girlfriend, Katy, has the headpiece. After a gunfight between yourself and a sadistic N. Korean agent, you end up with both the headpiece and Katy, who decides to travel with you. The two of you fly to Cairo and meet up with Gimli, a bearded, ax-wielding warrior dwarf, who says that he knows where they are digging for the Ark, and that the Rev. Philip Shooter of Sanford is working for the N. Koreans. N. Korean operatives quickly kidnap Katy and fake her death. You and Gimli and Jones get the headpiece deciphered and realize the N. Koreans used the wrong length for the Staff of Ra and are digging in the wrong place.
Infiltrating the dig, you and Gimli gather a small crew and begin to dig at the correct location. After several hours, you break through the roof of the buried Well of Souls. However, as you're lowered to the floor of the temple, you find it infested with deadly snakes. After you and Gimli hoist the Ark out of the temple, the N. Koreans take it away and seal the tomb off, leaving you trapped with Katy. You manage to escape, emerging aboveground in time to find a cargo plane being prepared to transport the Ark to Pyongyang. You accidentally blow up the plane, so the N. Koreans put the Ark on a truck to Cairo, where it will be shipped to Pyongyang. Stealing a horse, you pursue the convoy escorting the truck, seize control of the vehicle, and, after an extended pursuit, escape with the Ark. That evening, you and Katy leave Gimli and escort the Ark to England onboard a tramp steamer named Bantu Wind.
The next morning, a N. Korean sub stops the steamer you're on. Katy and the Ark are removed, and you covertly board the sub. You follow the N. Koreans and the Ark to an isolated canyon, where they plan to test the power of the Ark before presenting it to the Kim Jong-Il. Threatening to destroy the Ark with a rocket launcher, you demand that the N. Koreans free Katy. The Rev. Philip Shooter of Sanford calls your bluff, and you are forced to surrender. You and Katy are tied up while the Rev. Philip Shooter of Sanford and the N. Koreans perform a ceremonial opening of the Ark. Spirits emerge from within, and Jones, now fully aware of the supernatural danger of looking at the open Ark, warns Marion to close her eyes. The group of Nazis, who do not look away, are destroyed in the Ark's awesome display, and the Ark closes itself once more with a crack of thunder. Back in Washington D.C., the two Army intelligence agents tell you that "top men" are carefully studying the Ark. The artifact is then sealed in a wooden crate marked 'top secret' and stored in a giant government warehouse, filled with countless other similar crates.
