Ceylon (present-day Sri Lanka) was an island nation in South Asia, located off the southeastern coast of India.
Adventures in Ceylon
In 1935, Indiana Jones received a letter from the British Embassy in Ceylon while at Barnett College relating to funding for his search for the artifact known as the Idol of Kouru Watu. Soon after he traveled to Ceylon to retrieve the artifact.

Filming for the India section of the movie Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was filmed in Sri Lanka due to disagreements with the Indian government.
