Description:
Jordan, Petra. The urn tomb 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. Here is the bottom left side of the tomb with caves/tombs.
