'The Wadi Rum Protected Area is located in southern Jordan, about 290 km south of Amman and 60 km northeast of the coastal city of Aqaba. It covers an area of 72,000 ha – almost one percent of the country - making it the largest protected area in Jordan and the Levant region.
Over 25,000 petroglyphs, including early forms of pictographs, are located throughout the broader Wadi Rum area. Another 20,000 examples of epigraphical texts are found in the area. Petroglyphs and inscriptions were etched, engraved or pecked on stones or on the rock-faces of cliffs and hills. A more limited number were drawn using either charcoal or pigments (vegetal or ochre). Large boulders seem to have been the preferred supports, but otherwise cliff faces were chosen and the red sandstone that produces what is known as rock varnish was favoured over than the softer white sandstone (some example are also recorded on granite and basalt). These traces are rare testimonies in particular when writing becomes widespread and is associated with pictorial representations making this ensemble a priceless resource for the study of rock art - of the very early origin and development of writing in northern Arabia and the Middle East, and of pastoral communities, particularly nomads.'

Abstract 'Ten thousand years before Neolithic farmers settled in permanent villages, hunter-gatherer groups of the Epipalaeolithic period (c. 22–11,600 cal BP) inhabited much of southwest Asia. The latest Epipalaeolithic phase (Natufian) is well-known for the appearance of stone-built houses, complex site organization, a sedentary lifestyle and social complexity—precursors for a Neolithic way of life. In contrast, pre-Natufian sites are much less well known and generally considered as campsites for small groups of seasonally-mobile hunter-gatherers. Work at the Early and Middle Epipalaeolithic aggregation site of Kharaneh IV in eastern Jordan highlights that some of these earlier sites were large aggregation base camps not unlike those of the Natufian and contributes to ongoing debates on their duration of occupation. Here we discuss the excavation of two 20,000-year-old hut structures at Kharaneh IV that pre-date the renowned stone houses of the Natufian. Exceptionally dense and extensive occupational deposits exhibit repeated habitation over prolonged periods, and contain structural remains associated with exotic and potentially symbolic caches of objects (shell, red ochre, and burnt horn cores) that indicate substantial settlement of the site pre-dating the Natufian and outside of the Natufian homeland as currently understood'.

'Inhabited since prehistoric times, this Nabataean caravan-city, situated between the Red Sea and the Dead Sea, was an important crossroads between Arabia, Egypt and Syria-Phoenicia. Petra is half-built, half-carved into the rock, and is surrounded by mountains riddled with passages and gorges. It is one of the world's most famous archaeological sites, where ancient Eastern traditions blend with Hellenistic architecture.'
