The discovery of the grave as it turned out Discovery channelThe “Unknown expedition” also included 12 skeletons of more than 2000 years.
In addition to being a true archaeological miracle, the gorgeous facade of the ancient Petra city of Jordan was the background of many films, including “Indiana Jones and the last Crusade.”

The faces of the sand stone from the ancient city of Petra (one of the new seven wonders of the world) have long been in archaeological light. They even spent time Hollywood Limelight as a place of several scenes in the movie Indiana Jones and Last Crusade; But in the last show on the screen and no crime for the iconic professor of Harrison Ford, they were a very true discovery.

Discovery Channel The popular show Expedition Unnown was a place to document 12 people skeletons and artefacts dating back to 2000, all long hidden in the famous Khazneh (or Treasury) in Petra. The Colossal finds the team led by archaeologist Pearce Paul Creasman.

This is the find that if he is real, Indiana Jones would definitely be proud.

“It’s a very rare discovery,” said Josh Gates, host Discovery channelAccording to the program, based on CNN; “During the two centuries, when Peter has been investigated by archaeologists, nothing similar has been found before. Even in front of one of the world’s most famous buildings … There are still huge discoveries to do.”

Creasman, the Executive Director of the American Research Center, recruited an overhead radar to find out whether there was an opportunity for additional graves on the site. The collected data was in line with the data collected from the territories that had previously been found in the graves, and the Jordanian government has given approval for excavation under the global famous website.

The team was extremely pleased to see the real grave, and it really shocked the fact that it was full of remains and artifacts – many of the graves of ancient city were found empty, long -elected cleanly.

Along with the bones of 12 skeletal remains, the bones of which were molded, thanks to the porous sandstone that allows moisture in the flood space, the team found a mixture of bronze, iron and ceramic artifacts. It covered one ceramic creek pasted in one of the deceased’s weapons, ironically reminiscent Last Crusade; “It was really this wonderful moment,” said Gates, “about history, imitating art.

It is believed that the treasury is at least 2000 years near the main entrance to the city. It is a bright mausoleum carved in sandstone rocks, which have attracted tourists for a long time, but it was difficult to see this iconic monument because of the lack of finds in the graves.

“We were hoping to find everything that could tell us more about ancient people and place,” Creasman said. For example, Gates believe that the persons buried at the newly discovered grave exhibition had to be very high status due to the main real estate used for the burial site. “Human remains,” Creasman continued, “it can be a really valuable tool in this regard. The burial in this tomb is articulated, so the bones were not stolen and move around to keep it out.”

Deep deeper into the remains and artifacts in the graves, additional information on khazneh, Petra and Nabataeans, who once lived in that place, can be opened. “I think I have learned what they are,” Gates said, “he really intends to unlock part of the Treasury story.”
