From what I've gathered, Indy is an entirely original character, inspired by both reality and fiction. The key word here is "inspired", not to be confused with contrived.
Indy bears hints of Robin Hood, Zorro, Bond, Bogart, Flynn, and pretty much every kind of hero you can think of. He was meant to portray the spirit of adventure, which he did. You can't really take one figure from the past and say "THIS is what inspired Indy" because so many things did.

But enough that, I think we've flogged this subject to death before, haven't we?
