"""The Treasury,"" Petra.  The first ""structure"" encountered after emerging from the Siq into the Nabatean ruins at Petra.  Carved completely by hand from the rock, this structure was probably actually a tomb.  It was dubbed ""the treasury"" due to a rumor that the Pharoah's gold was hidden in the carved ""urn"" shape at the top of this facade.  © Rick Collier"
