The Indian Tomb (1921) was a two-part German silent film directed by Joe May.

It is based on the novel Das indische Grabmal by Thea von Harbou It comprised two parts, Part I: the Mission of the Yogi and Part II: the Tiger of Bengal (German: Das Indische Grabmal: Der Tiger von Eschnapur).

Upon its release, it was neither a critical nor commercial success and has been little seen until two recent restorations were completed, a European film restoration and a U.S. video restoration by David Shepard.
