Description: From Geotimes. A discussion on how flash floods were controlled by the Nabateans and how they, and tourists, are threatening to destroy Petra. (June 01, 2004)
Geotimes — June 2004 — Petra: An Eroding Ancient City Tucked into desert canyons in southwestern Jordan, carved stone facades cover red sandstone walls, tens of meters high. Just inside the rock faces, benches line cavernous rooms hewn there thousands of years ago. The red rock walls ring the ancient city of Petra, where expert stonemasons made the monuments for gods, kings and wealthy citizens.
