Summary:The small modern village of Dhat Ras, Jordan, contains the remains of three Nabatean or Roman-period temples. One of the temples, the small temple, remains largely intact and is quite impressive in design and appearance. Unfortunately, these temples have been neglected by both historians and archaeologists and, because modern villagers are robbing the ruins for building materials, are in danger of disappearing.
