In this episode, we look at one of the most peculiar stories of civilizational survival to come down to us from the ancient world, the story of the Nabataeans. Find out how these once humble traders rose to become masters of the desert sands, and to defy empires. And discover what happened to finally bring down the empire of Nabataea.

You know it‘s Fall of Civilizations when a history podcast goes into details about the origin of sandstone. Love it.

You could do a nonstop 48 hour lecture and I would sit on the edge of my seat the entire time. You bring history to life and I have loved every one of your videos.

Ahhh, yes. Fall of Civ, where stage-setting invariably goes back to the Cambrian. Well, as they say, history is geography. I love the way you tie the advantages and disadvantages conveyed by the landscape into the rise and fall of each society.

This is easily the most fascinating archaeological site that a traveler could hope to visit. If you go in winter, there are very few tourists, yet it's still sunny and pleasant.

In my opinion you deserve some kind of reward for this fantastic documentary.
It's like you gave these peaceful and brave people a monument, in this way they Won't be forgotten.
I loved every second of this documentary.
A huge THANKS to you, Paul, and everybody who worked with you to make this.
It's truly wonderful.

I listen to these every night as I drift off to sleep. And this is one of my favorite episodes, due to the fact it seems to magically weave itself into my dreams even more than others. Like whirling sands that seems to create the imagery you have an uncanny way of describing.

ah man, these introductions always get me. They are like 8+ mins long, and it just grabs you and then the title screen comes in and you remember that this is a full production and you've only JUST begun the journey.

Every time I hear that intro piano, I'm overtaken by chills and want to cry in anticipation. Beautiful as ever.

Syllaeus is a legend, bought his country a century! What a man, messing with the Romans like that 😂😂
This is excellent work.
Thanks for bringing us this brilliant content.

I lived in Saudi Arabia and visited both Petra and Hegra (Meda'in Saleh) a number of tìmes, long beforè the tourists and fancy hotels/resorts appeared like a blight on the landscape...for me, both ancient cities and their surrounding landscapes are some of the most stunningly beautful places on earth...

As the founder and owner of Windham Hill Records, I had an opportunity to produce a piano album by the Jordanian musician, Zade Dirani. Zaid's father, Ziad, was the principal architect for the Jordanian royal family. Long story short, Princess Alia al Faisal, arranged to have us be the only people in Petra for an entire morning while we did filming for a promotional video. To be the ONLY people in the Siq and the city of Petra itself will remain as one of the most treasured memories of my life.
