Jordan. Umm al Jimal, ACOR USAID SCHEP and DOA field visit to Umm al Jimal
Creator
USAID SCHEP
Description
Just east of Mafraq, Umm al Jimal has been continually inhabited since its inception as a Nabataean trading post. The buildings were constructed and re-constructed out of black basalt stones, giving this ancient city a distinct appearance. At Umm al Jimal, ACOR USAID SCHEP partnered with the Umm el-Jimal Archaeological Project under the leadership of Dr. Bert de Vries to clear pathways for visitors and install interpretive signage throughout the site, among other interventions.
