Traveler Reports: “An old path leads up to Djebel Qarun, with the ruins of a small building, a stone basin and stairs going up to it. Washed down the slope are so many Nabataean sherds, including lamp fragments and painted pottery, that a Nabataean mountain sanctuary or shrine can be assumed” (Lindner 1986).
