For more than four centuries the ancient kingdom of Petra, with its magnificent temples and rockcut tombs, flourished at the intersection of two major trade routes running from Syria to the Red Sea and from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean. The Romans absorbed Petra into their empire in 106 a.d., and in 363 a.d. an earthquake left the city in ruins, forgotten in the West until European explorers rediscovered it in the 19th century. Todaylargely as a result of the astonishing finds from ongoing archaeological excavationsthis beautiful site has become one of the most visited tourist destinations in the Middle East. Petra Rediscovered brings us the discoveries from those excavations, in a spectacular volume that accompanies a major traveling exhibition on the history and art of this evocative ancient city.Vibrantly illustrated with onsite photographymost newly shot for this bookPetra Rediscovered presents the latest archaeological revelations and scholarly research on the city and the Nabataean people. Essays in lively prose by archaeologists who have worked at Petra and researched the art, objects, and inscriptions found there will fascinate history and archaeology buffs, art lovers, and travelers, who will be newly inspired to visit this spectacular site.
