At the age of 18, after the death of her father, Lara inherited the Croft estates and became Countess of Abbingdon. Since then she has been credited with the discovery of some 16 archeological sites of international significance. Lara Croft has been hailed both as an archeological wunderkind and a glorified treasure hunter, depending on who's talking.
