[00:00:00]History tried to erase this city. Hidden deep in the deserts of Jordan lies Petra, a city carved directly into giant stone cliffs over 2,000 years ago.

[00:00:11]At its peak, Petra was incredibly wealthy and controlled major trade routes connecting Arabia, Egypt, and the Mediterranean.

[00:00:19]But then something strange happened.

[00:00:22]The city slowly disappeared from history, and much of the world forgot it even existed.

[00:00:29]For centuries, Petra remained hidden.

[00:00:31]Many people outside the region had no idea the city was there.

[00:00:36]Then explorers rediscovered it, revealing massive tombs, temples, and structures carved into solid rock.

[00:00:43]But historians still debate how much of Petra remains hidden beneath the desert.
