Arab Henchman (elbowed)

An Arab goon was among a group of thugs hired by two German Gestapo intelligence agents to kill American archaeologist Indiana Jones and bar owner Marion Ravenwood and retrieve the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra in the marketplace of Cairo, Egypt in 1936. The thug, along with five other hired goons, attacked Jones and Ravenwood in the corner of the marketplace next to a silverware stall and attempted to kill the two Americans. However, the two were able to escape the thugs.

Hired to kill
In 1936, an Arab resided in Cairo, Egypt as a goon-for-hire. That year, along with five other local goons, he was hired by two German Gestapo intelligence agents to kill American archaeologist Indiana Jones and bar owner Marion Ravenwood and acquire the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra in the marketplace of Cairo. Their identities concealed by dark masks, the six robed men united in a shady building in the centre of the marketplace along with their employers, and soon followed one of the two agents down a passageway to the stall Jones and Ravenwood were examining. On the Nazi agent's orders, the six hooded men ambushed the two Americans. During the brawl, this Arab attacked Jones and slammed him against a stall, wrestling him until the American elbowed him in the chin, sending him tumbling backwards onto the ground where he lay unconscious.

Behind the scenes
The Arab goon was portrayed by an uncredited performer in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
