Petroglyphs depicting hunting scenes on a cliff face at Wadi Rum, Jordan. Here we see men with camels hunting various animals (ostriches, gazelles, lions, etc). Thamudic, Nabataean and Arabic inscriptions testify to widespread literacy in these peoples. In Wadi Rum there are 25,000 rock carvings and 20,000 inscriptions produced over 12,000 years of habitation, from Neolithic to Nabataean.
