Wadi Rum became a Nabataean outpost on the trading route between Saudi Arabia and Petra in the last century BC. Remains of several Nabataean constructions (including shrines, reservoirs and dams) have been uncovered. At the foot of Jabal Rum, in walking distance from the modern Rum Village, are the ruins of a Nabataean temple, adjoining palatial residence and luxury bath complex.
