Ancient Wisconsin
Beloit - The Real Indiana Jones
 | |  | |  | |  |
The Real Indiana Jones was a Wisconsinite
In the 1920's, Wisconsin's Roy Chapman Andrews was the worlds greatest
Dinosaur Hunter, Naturalist, Explorer, Adventurer, Teacher, Writer and
Marksman. His trademark explorer's outfit was as familiar to the man on the
street as Charlie Chaplin's little tramp costume. He repeatedly graced the
covers of every major magazine. Through his writings and speaking tours, he
inspired countless generations of paleontologists. In his many adventures,
he fought countless bandits, swam shark infested waters,twice nearly
drowned in typhoons, eluded the killing grasp of a python and lived to tell the
tale. It is no wonder that he is reputed to be the model for Indiana Jones. As
director of the American Museum of Natural History, he lead a spectacular
series of bone hunting expeditions into China, the Gobi Desert, and
Mongolia. He found the first proof that dinosaurs laid eggs and was able to
ship back an enormous quantity of dinosaur bones. In an era of great
explorers and shameless self promotion, he stood alone - larger than life,
with a hundred lifetimes of experience and accomplishment.
Andrews was born and raised in Beloit, Wisconsin. He graduated Beloit
College. He then spent most of his adult life traveling the world, uncovering
it's forgotten corners, and digging into it's most distant past. After an
extraordinary career, Andrews retired to Carmel, California. He died there in
1960. As per his wishes, his ashes were returned to Wisconsin to be buried
with his family at the Oakwood Cemetery in Beloit.
Dragon Hunter: Roy Chapman Andrews and the Central Asiatic Expeditions
by Charles Gallenkamp is a thrilling read. Get it. No bookshelf in this state
should be without it.

| The Burlington Mounds "...A race that long has passed away built them. A disciplined and populous race heaped, with long toil, the earth. The red man came— The roaming hunter tribes, warlike and fierce, and the mound builders vanished from the earth. The gopher now mines the ground where stood the swarming cities. All is gone...All—save the piles of earth that hold their bones and the platforms where they worshipped their unknown gods." |
