Volume Two of Petra's Temple of the Winged Lions discusses sculpture, ceramics, an incense burner, lamps, coins, glass, ground stone tools, worked bone, metalwork, personal ornaments and cosmetic implements, inscriptions, faunal remains, invertebrates, and human remains. It also describes visitor surveys and an on-site educational programme for children.


Petra's Temple of the Winged Lions, named for its distinctive column capitals, has been excavated and conserved for 40 years. These two volumes see a great deal of data and syntheses published for the first time; they bring to publication the results of two long-term archaeological projects in the ancient Nabataean heartland.
