Triclinium Interior

Roman Soldier Tomb Complex
Wadi Farasa, Petra

The much-worn benches of the triclinium were carved directly from the floor. Smoke damage on the ceiling is the residue of later occupancy; from the medieval through early modern periods, Beduin herders would use Petra's tombs and caves as dwellings of convenience.

The triclinium is located on the lower terrace, across from the Roman Soldier tomb. It should not be confused with the Garden Triclinium on the upper terrace.
