Synopsis

The series follows adventures and travel through the world of archaeologist Sydney Fox accompanied by Nigel Bailey. They work in an American university, identified as the University of Trinity, and are helped by Claudia, a spoiled child but of effective help. Claudia is a secret secretary but who has the ability to get out of unfortunate situations of a bureaucratic nature. Karen Petrushky replaces Claudia in the third season.

In each episode, we present a relic or an artifact used in its original time. It is then lost or stolen and, after a cut, we find ourselves in the 21st century, and someone (the museum, a collector or the government) asks Sydney and Nigel to find the relic. The duo must then go around the world, hunting for clues to find the artifact. Very often, their investigations are hampered by a hunter of rival relic or by an essential index lost. It is then in Sydney and Nigel to grasp the relic before it is lost again. Each episode ends on a stage at the University of Trinity explaining what happened to the relic.

Sydney Fox L'Aventurer (original title: Relic Hunter) is an American television series in 98 42 -minute episodes, created by Robert de Laurentiis and broadcast between September 7, 1999 and May 20, 2002 on the Le Monde television network.

The series follows the adventures of Sydney Fox, an audacious and intrepid archaeologist, who traverses the world in search of lost treasures and rare archaeological objects.
