"The Nabateans will always be an example on how to forge beauty in the harshest of terrains, and how to prosper and flourish autonomously in a land of empires. And that is a legacy more fragrant than all the incense in the world." Damn, that's deep.

I wonder if Israel claim that West Bank and North Israel always belong to them since Kingdom of Israel or being to them 3000 years, but 2000 years they do not control from Roman-Eastern Roman/Byzantine(with in vassal Ghassanid Arab Christian kingdom), and Arab Caliphate Empire(Dynasty Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid of Baghdad, Fatimid, and the last is Abbasid of Cairo, but power under Ayyubid and Mamluk Sultan, until 1524, and Caliph transfer to Ottoman Turkish, that why Ottoman have 2 titles Sultan and Caliph while Oman, Morocco etc was just Sultan or Emir/Prince, Sultan mean Authority, it's like Shogun and Emperor of Japan, Shogun have power and rule, Emperor jus become head of state/empire and ceremonial), for 2000 years Jews do not control, rule nor majority population and not even as 2 largest, it was Christian was the 2nd largest after Islam. After Arab Muslim rule, under Caliph Umar, the 2nd Caliph allowed Jews to return to Jerusalem and bring 70 Jewish family to Jerusalem, under Roman, Jews was banned in Jerusalem and nearby region mean Palestine. Muslim help always Jews and Samaritans 2 group of Israelite because not just similarity of Islam and Judaism like not eating pork, no blood, Halaka law and Syriah law, but also circumcision and Jerusalem as holy land, and most important Abraham are the father of the Jews(Israelite) and Arab/Muslim(Ishmaelite), Qedar Confederation and Israel Kingdom next each others, Jews have Jerusalem as capital, Samaritan with Nablus(Mount Gerizim as Holy Site), while Nabateans in Petra, with other major and small city like Avdat in Israel, and Madain Saleh in North Saudi Arabia. if Israel claim 3000 years ago being to Israel why not South Israel which today Negev also included Gaza give to Arab, which belong to them for 3000 years non stop, Ottoman because of Muslim, and also have local governor that rule that region, some province have local King like Crimean Tatars, Libya, Algeria, Tunisia with Beys, Lebanon, Hijaz(Today Saudi Arabia) and Mamluk of Iraq(not include non muslim vassal and autonomous like Romania). so Give back Southern Israel Negev or Naqab in original name to Arabs let Arab native of Negev choose to Joined Jordan, Egypt or Saudi, beter =Join Saudi more stable economy, wealthy and bigger country., or as Independent State as Palestine in exchange of West Bank give to Israel. AND Golan must return TO SYRIA. Most people of US, UK, EU-NATO and Australia do not knw about Negev belong to Arabs for 3000 years(2962 years if wnt more accurate) which unlike Israel do not control the land 2000 years, nothing in Islamic time and medieval time have Jews control Palestine far have Medieval kingdom, that why JEWS DO not have Medieval traditional culture, traditional weapon, bodyarmor, medieval architecture, castle, palace, fort, old city wall, old city gate, citadel, architecture, clothing and Kingdom, that why Jews in Middle east and North Africa used Arab Egyptian, Syrian, Yemeni, Moroccan/Moorish architecture, in Europe used European architecture or Moorish(Islamic Spain, Portugal, Malta, Sicily, Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia), in China, Kaifeng Jews they used CHINESE architecture just like Chinese temple and Chinese mosque, in India they used Indian Mughal style or mixed between European, Moorish and Mughal. SO Negev must return to ARABS since Qedar Confederation and Nabateans, with Avdat, Elusa and others site as archaeological proof and historical heritage site.

Pre-Islamic Arab culture is not something that is discussed very often, thank you for this contribution. The Kingdom of Kinda, The Qedarites, The Ghassanids, The Lakhmids, & The Palmyrene Empire would all make great additions to your catalog. Kudos for the good work, & keep it up! Cheers!!!

"Spice must always flow" haha, a good reference to the Dune universe where the Fremen are based on these people.

It's always good to have more knowledge, learn about forgotten kingdoms in history with Kings and Generals, taking advantage of the theme about desert kingdoms, we hope for a video about the kingdom of Sheba or Axum.

Thank you for the video to show the ancient Arab civilization.. The world only sees that the Arabs have a civilization after Islam, not before it.. But there are many ancient Arab kingdoms and civilizations.

Nabatea was and will still be one of the greatest arab kingdoms of the pre-Islamic era, the people themselves are believed to be extinct but their legacy is still apparent in the pink city (Petra) as an arab and a Jordanian, watching you spreading the history of our old ancestors gives me chills, Arab kingdoms are underrated and unfortunately not well known so thank you for your effort

I remember the game Assassin's Creed: Origins had a DLC that was on Nabatean. But I never questioned how historically accurate the DLC was until now. Great video.

Petra is a phenomenal place to visit! Great to hear this story. You missed out the earthquakes that wrecked the city in the 4th and 8th centuries - as thry had lost their trade monopoly, it ended up not being rebuilt

Good video about this kingdom!

So much great content and so little time to see it.

One of the greatest scholars to have studied the architecture of the Nabataeans and their architectural history was Judith McKenzie (may she rest in peace): McKenzie, J. (1990). Architecture of Petra. Oxford. I highly recommend this book to those architecture geeks like me out there.

Saracen is first used by the Geographer Ptolemy using the term Sarakēnoí and Arab people in the Northwestern Sinai peninsula. It is also used in the Augustan History as attacking Pescennius Niger in Egypt. After the Rashidun Conquest the term would be used as a general term for the Muslims east of the Maghreb.

@@Albimaristan what's your favorite base faction? Mines Carthage because of growing up watching the Battles of Lake Trasimene and Canae when the history channel was history.

Great summary of the Nabataean era! Comprehensive and visually entertaining but it misses two important points: - The Nabataean script used for writing Arabic and Aramaic eventually gave rise to the modern Arabic alphabet which is still the second most widely used script in the world today. As an Arab people, the Nabataeans influenced other Arabs in the interior even before the rise of Islam and indirectly continued their influence well into the era of Muslim caliphates. - The video largely ignores the southern half of the Nabataean kingdom located in modern Saudi Arabia. Although shown in maps used for the video, the locations and history do not get a mention. The city of Hegra within that region functioned as the second capital for the Nabataeans after Petra! They conquered the area from the Dadanites to consolidate their control over the spice trade and left many architectural marvels there to this day. Framing them as a Levantine group does not do their civilization justice as they remained intertwined with their Arabian ancestors to the south and flourished in northern Arabia as one contiguous kingdom.

Amazing video and script. The Nabateans, known for their impressive city of Petra, also had another significant city to the south called Hegra (Mada'in Saleh). This site is located in modern-day Saudi Arabia and is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Hegra showcases traces of Lihyanite and Roman occupation, which preceded and followed the Nabatean rule, respectively.
