10 Most Powerful Artefacts Lara Croft Has Ever Found
8. Pandora's Box
Another artefact inspired by Greek mythology became the focus of 2003’s Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. The second Tomb Raider film to star Angelina Jolie as Lara saw her face Jonathan Reiss, a scientist who is determined to release the plague of "anti-life" that is rumoured to be contained within Pandora’s Box.
In this adventure, Lara jets off to China and Africa on her quest to find the Cradle of Life, the supposed place where life on Earth began and the resting place of Pandora’s Box. On this journey Lara teams up with Terry Sheridan, another old flame, and the two of them explore their old feelings for each other as they try to reach Pandora's box before Reiss.
In the final showdown, Lara makes her way into the Mountain of God at the Cradle of Life and finds the box in a pool of acid. In here both Reiss and Sheridan try to take the box for themselves and leave Lara with no choice but to kill them both. Lara is remorseful for her actions, but knows she did what she had to and returns the box to the pool in the hope that it will never be found again.
