PETRA - The Treasury
antoniolouro > albums > PETRA (JORDAN)
Album Info:
While it's facade is very impressive the purpose of this monument has been a puzzle to all those who would seek to understand its use and function. While some would propose that the Treasury Monument was a tomb, no tomb inscriptions or grave crypts have been discovered. Others have proposed that it was what the Arabs call it, a 'Treasury' or tax house for passing camel caravans, but archeologists and historians now doubt that many camel caravans came into Petra, as most of the caravans passed the city, traveling on the King's Highway a good number of miles away.
