Description:
Petra, Jordan. The urn tomb (center-right of the image) is carved into the cliff of the Jabal al- Khubtah. It's part of the Royal Tombs north of the theatre and facing the Qasr al-Bint temple. The urn tomb with it's hellenistic style facade is probably the tomb of a prince or a king (maybe Malichos II). It was transformed into a church in the year 447 AD. The staircase, supported by two levels of archs, that leads to the monument is from the byzantine era
