The Petra Pool-Complex: A Hellenistic Paradeisos in the Nabataean Capital: Results from the Petra "Lower Market" Survey and Excavation, 1998 - Gorgias Studies in Classical and Late Antiquity
Leigh-Ann Bedal
Excavations in the Lower Market in Petra (Jordan), capital of the ancient kingdom of Nabsataea, uncovered the remnants of a monumental pool-complex at the heart of the ancient city. The mere presence of a paradeidos in Petra symbolized the Nabataean king's power and helped to legitimize his place among contemporary rulers.
