: Yeah, I've seen that too. I figure someone who never saw Temple of Doom wrote up the review on the back of the movie box (which is where I noticed that mistake), and spelled it "Ankara." And since Ankara is a real word (capital of Turkey), spell-check didn't catch it.

It is indeed Sankara, they say that in the movie (remember Indy going "Sankara!" and also the little boy), however, if you watch the LC interview at the end, Spielberg is calling them "Ankara stones" I suspect that's the reason for the discrepency you guys are seeing on the back of the box and when they asked the Indy question on "Who Wants to Be A Millionare"
