Main Theatre, Petra, Jordan
Main Theatre at Petra, Ma'an, Jordan. Mountain with tomb facades is visible in the background. The theatre is designed on principles laid down by Roman architect Vitruvius but carved into the rock rather than being built. The complex was originated with a Nabatean theatre built in 1st century BC but was altered by the Romans in 2nd century AD following a more Greco-Roman design. The theatre seated 6000 people. Petra was the capital and royal city of the Nabateans, Arabic desert nomads. Picture by Manuel Cohen
