Not sure if these are entirely relevant to what you are looking for, but maybe try:
King Solomon's Mines (1950) - Stewart Granger
Valley of the Kings (1954) - Robert Taylor
Legend of the Lost (1957) - John Wayne
She (1965) - Ursula Andress, Peter Cushing
The Southern Star (1969) - George Segal/Ursula Andress
King Solomon's Mines (1985) - Richard Chamberlain
Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold (1987) - Chamberlain
Congo (1995) - Michael Crichton (writer)
Lara Croft 1&2
maybe some of the old "Tarzan" films
Abbott & Costello Meet the Mummy
the Fifth Element had some archeology stuff in the opening
King Solomon's Mines (1950) - Stewart Granger

...and the Jurassic Park trilogy.
There's a movie with Antonio Banderas called "The Body" which is about an archaeologist in the Middle East who finds the remains of Christ.

...and if you like those movies, you'll love Chuck Norris and Louis Gossett Jr. in FIREWALKER. It's a true "Video Treasure".
