Petra, Jordan First Research Project
Petra, Jordan Research Final
Reflection
Petra has always been a place that has fascinated me. There is a certain mystery from an outsiders perspective. The first time I had ever heard of Petra was from Indiana Jones when they visited the treasury to find the Holy Grail. The architecture was just so incredible and beautiful to look at. I have always wanted to know more about this place. This research project gave me that exact opportunity to do so. Finding the right information to relate to the requirements of the assignment were a bit tricky. Not much is know about the ancient people who once lived there. Finding artifacts to talk about was also tricky because one, there are not too many out there, and two, because the internet could not find any information on them as well. I really had to think outside of the box when it came to researching and finding information. The information that I did discover was super interesting to me. I honestly would like to research Petra further as well as perhaps visit the area one day. Even after learning so much I still have many questions and it feels as though there is even more mystery behind the rock cut buildings.
