In this video I continue to discuss the ancient Rose City of Petra with its spectacular and massive rock hewn caves carved into red sandstone. These caves are said to have been carved about 2,000 years ago.
The most iconic of them all is the Treasury, which is located at the final twist of the towering walls of the Siq canyon. This stunning structure is almost 40 meters or 130’ high and intricately decorated with Corinthian-styled capitals, friezes, figures and reliefs. Looking at its magnificent exterior, one cannot help but wonder how this incredible facade was created two millennia ago. Fortunately, I located some great close-up photos of the Treasury’s exterior which are very telling. From these photos we are able to get an idea what went into the creation of the façade. We can see clues showing that the structure was possibly reworked on and repurposed in a later period; which might challenge the current narrative and put the claimed creators of Petra into question.
