Petra Study Finds Rare Lead Pipeline in Ancient Aqueduct
A new study of Petra’s ‘Ain Braq aqueduct has revealed a surprisingly sophisticated water-delivery setup, including a rare lead pipeline that suggests engineers were moving water under pressure across difficult terrain. The standout discovery is a previously undocumented lead conduit around 116 meters long, an unusual choice outside buildings in the eastern Mediterranean hinting at both wealth and technical confidence in the Nabataean capital’s infrastructure.
Petra, in today’s southern Jordan, is famous for its rock-cut monuments, but it was also a city that could not thrive without careful water planning. At its height, Petra supported baths, pools, garden spaces, and temple water features, demanding steady flow in a semi-arid landscape explains a Phys.org report.
