Another factor for the cemetery fight could've been pacing. In the film, it's a pretty fast-paced action scene, with the warriors flying in and out of frame. Maybe Spielberg decided that the whip moment slowed that momentum too much?
Anyway, just reading through the comic adaptation, and many of the scenes from the novel are included. This suggests that they were probably in the screenplay, and not among the stuff Rollins created for the novelization.
-The football stadium.
-During the flight, Indy teaches Mutt about the Nazca lines.
-The conquistador wrappings are made of the same material as the Roswell alien's wrapping.
-Indy cries tears of blood while looking at the skull.
-Spalko and Mac discuss the skull. The conclusion of this scene has Mac 'testing' Spalko's ESP. She replies, "If I feel the slightest need." We then learn that the question he was thinking of was, "Will Spalko cut my throat when we reach Akator?" (This exchange was also in the novelization.)
-Indy and Mac escape the throne room by running together, and Mac tries to convince Indy he's still on his side. Indy sums up Mac's character by saying, "It's whoever's in the room, isn't it, Mac?"
A few other things of note:
-During Indy's interrogation, he tells the FBI he has many friends in Washington. The FBI man simply replies, "Do you?" This is similar to the exchange that was in Darabont's script.
-At the end of Dean Stanforth's talk with Indy, he mentions that he wishes Indy had found the right woman. He then wonders if Indy ever did, and just didn't realize it at the time. (As Indy reacts, we see the whip and hat in the background.)
-When Indy gives his "we were at the University of Chicago" speech to Oxley, he mentions that they were both in Abner Ravenwood's class.
-During the finale, Indy explains that the aliens were teachers. This is why the skull spoke to him and Oxley, and why it refused to speak to Spalko. They sensed the same greed in her that the conquistadors had possessed.
