Once the visitor to the Petra Geat Temple mounts the Propylaea steps from the Colonnaded Street, he is removed from the hustle and bustle of the secular world and enters a precinct where he might sense the divine epiphany of the Great Temple itself. Here the author presents the results of the past ten years of Brown University excavations at the Great Temple and relates how archaeology has refined our knowledge of the various sectors of the Great Temple precinct
