• Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Riley says that the symbol for the presidential book was released in 1966 under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). FOIA was signed in 1966, but didn't go in to effect until 1967.
• Movie Goof (anachronisms): Gold was barely, or completely unknown to the ancient Olmec culture. Of course further cultures found it, and used it, but it was a couple hundred years later.
• Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Even though Ben nor Patrick nor Emily mention the Cascajal Block - a carved slab with 62 glyphs which dates to the Olmec's San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán phase - as to why they think the plank is Olmec, the glyphs on the Block that match the glyphs on some Olmec artifacts have never been identified as writing, and the rest of the glyphs on the Block are unknown and indecipherable. So, Emily is wrong when she says that the plates in the City of Gold will help decipher the Olmec language.
• Movie Goof (continuity error): At the beginning of the film when Riley's car is being towed, the vehicle shown is a Ferrari F430. The car returned to him at the end is a Ferrari 360 Modena.
