Rock Art at Umm Sedara site 1

Mohammad Zidane al Zalabih (an excellent guide specializing in rock art) guided Michael Fuller and Neathery Fuller to a dozen petroglyph sites in Wadi Rum on 24 February 2015.


Umm Sedara, site no. 1, is a long panel situated approximately 3 meters above the ground surface.
