Indiana Jones Crystal Skull Question #1?

Spoiler warning so don't read below if you haven't seen the movie.

So in the beginning of the movie when they are in the warehouse, there's a scene where a crate gets knocked over and there's something gold inside. It looked like it was either some type of container...kind of like a chest. So is this is a reference to a past Indy movie or something that is being used to foreshadow later events?

    the first movie

    it was the arc of the covenant which held the 10 commandments

    That is the Ark of the Covenant which is put there at the end of the first movie Raider's of the Lost Ark.

    Unfortunetly, during that first scene in the new one, Indy doesn't realize it's there. He probably would have done something with it if he had known.

    Set in 1957 (19 years after Part 3), it opens with a bang as Indy, kidnapped by a team of KGB agents led by a butch Russian scientist (Cate Blanchett), is taken to the same vast Nevada government warehouse where Part 1, "Raiders of the Lost Ark," ended.
