Petra was once occupied by the Nabateans, they created almost all of what you see in Petra.  Recently the Bedouins have resided in Petra and have been moved to a city outside, because of the tourism.  Entering Petra understanding will come at once as to why this site is one of the seven wonders of the world.  The Treasury is a gigantic facade that was carved from the sandstone, and is said to be a sacrificial place.  The Nabateans used to sacrifice animals to their gods.  There is much to see in Petra including the temples, a Roman theater, mourning halls, tombs, and much more.
