Here you'll find several inspiration sources for the Enemy Territory map Oasis:
- As the Siva Oasis is an ancient archaeological site; other Egyptian sites such as the Temple of Karnak in Louxor inspired Splash Damage.

- The movie “Lawrence of Arabia” and the city of Akaba whose cannons were facing the sea would have inspired the map's objectives, and also the axis fortress.

- At last, the movie “Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation” and the scene with the little wagon in the mines. Generally speaking, the whole Wolfenstein game was inspired by the Spielberg's trilogy.
