I'm quite familiar with Roman history and have read a few books by Roman historians (Flavio Josephus included), but I've never paid much attention to the references to this city. This documentary is excellent. This city now in ruins must have been very beautiful, busy and important in the 1st century AD. The virtual recreation of the buildings and the city could have been done. This would add great media value to the site.

When I look at these documentaries about roman civilizations and their buildings, I am always amazed. The buildings that the romans built are still there for well over 2000 years as they were once built by them. When I look at today's houses in contrast to the Roman buildings, there is a big question mark over my head. Why do the houses that are built today crumble after barely twenty years and Roman buildings are still standing after 2000 years. Are today's masons or architects too stupid to build a solid house? If you look at roman buildings then you should think so.
Probably the bad construction has to do with money again nowadays, because you can't earn money on something that is built for eternity.

The use of natural light to accentuate some of the ruins is extraordinary. Nice to see a documentary about an ancient site in Jordan other than Petra.
