Henry "Indiana" Walton Jones, Jr., Ph.D.,[1] is a fictional professor of archaeology, adventurer, and the main protagonist of the 1981 adventure film Raiders of the Lost Ark, its prequel (Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom), sequels (Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull), the 1992-1993 television series The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, and the theme park attraction Indiana Jones Adventure, which exists in similar forms at Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea. Jones is notable for his trademark bullwhip, fedora, leather jacket, and fear of snakes.

The character is most famously played by Harrison Ford. He has also been portrayed by River Phoenix (as the young Jones in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade), and in the television series The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles by Corey Carrier, Sean Patrick Flanery, and George Hall. Doug Lee has supplied Jones' voice to two LucasArts video games, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine, while David Esch supplied his voice to Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb.

In addition to his film and television appearances, the character has been featured in novels, comics, video games, and other media. The fourth theatrical film, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, is currently in post production and scheduled for international simultaneous release on Thursday, May 22, 2008.
