Treasury of the Pharaohs or Khazneh Firaoun, 100 BC - 200 AD, Petra, Ma'an, Jordan. Originally built as a royal tomb, the treasury is so called after a belief that pirates hid their treasure in an urn held here. Carved into the rock face opposite the end of the Siq, the 40m high treasury has a Hellenistic facade with three bare inner rooms. Petra was the capital and royal city of the Nabateans, Arabic desert nomads.
