The Ceramic Oil Lamp As An Indicator Of Cultural Change Within Nabataean Society In Petra And Its Environs Circa Ce 106
Investigates three ancient Nabataean sites: the Great Temple, a ceremonial site in Petra, Jordan; the North Ridge tombs, a funerary site, also in Petra; and, the sanctuary at Khirbet et-Tannur, some 70 km north of Petra. This title examines their diversity in sacred use via the ceramic oil lamp, a vessel that can portray religious symbolism.
