Biography
In 1936, Eric Davona, along Colonel Musgrove and Major Eaton, ordered the National Museum curator Marcus Brody to arrange an appointment with famed archaeologist Indiana Jones, who had recently returned from an adventure in Peru that same year. Once alone with Musgrove and Eaton, Davona and Jones spoke about Adolf Hitler's plan to acquire the Ark of the Covenant in order to gain global domination.

Danova later worked on the preparations for Jones' journey along Eaton and Musgrove. Following Indy's achievement to recover the Ark, Davona, along Musgrove and Eaton reunited with Jones and Marion Ravenwood to give them thanks.

Behind the scenes
Eric Davona was originally part of the first draft of Lawrence Kasdan's script for Raiders of the Lost Ark. Although Kasdan later retained many of his original ideas in the final script, Davona didn't make it into the shooting script, with some of his parts given to either Eaton or Musgrove.
