Beidha in Jordan
In 2005, at Beidha, a northern suburb of the Nabataean capital of Petra, the remains of an elaborately decorated freestanding building were uncovered. Although little of the structure remains, architectural elements found at the site make it possible to propose a tentative reconstruction of the building, the main part of which was a colonnaded hall or oecus approached through a courtyard. The oecus may have been a triclinium of the Nabataean rule…
The Churches of Byzantine Petra
The excavation of three Byzantine churches and the discovery of a cache of Byzantine papyri by the American Center of Oriental Research (ACOR) have created new pages in the history of Petra. The churches are clustered on a slope in the northern part of downtown Petra and provide evidence for the people who lived at Petra in the centuries after it had ceased to be an important metropolitan center
Petra North Ridge Tombs 1 and 2
In 1998-99, two Nabataean tombs were excavated in Petra. One contained intact burials that provide insight into the lives of one extended family: they led healthy, active lives, with few signs of stress or bony responses to chronic diseases, but fractures and other injuries show that they were occasionally prone to nonfatal falls. With age, they experienced degenerative conditions, such as degenerative joint disease (DJD) and vertebral osteophyto…
Black Athena and the Phoenicians
Bernal's stated scholarly purpose is to open up new areas of research. He implicitly asks archaeologists to question whether what has been assigned as Greek is in fact Greek. This may indeed open up new areas in Near Eastern archaeology, as illustrated by the case of Al Mina. Bernal's basic thesis is that the Aryan model of Greek development had anti-Semetic underpinnings which denied the Phoneticians any role. However, other factors which Bernal…
