this is the temple of the wind lions, a religious complex built in around 27 ad. i like your office. a beautiful place. this man is in charge of the site and started by telling unit of the problems when the temple was first excavated. they recovered this place but did not do a wonderful job of preserving it forfuture generations. when you excavate a mine you have to pull a lot of dirt out of the ground to reveal itself as the earlier project on the lot of the earth and as you see we are trying to re excavate those earlier archaeological dumps. the dumps are huge mounds of compressed earth which will take years to sort through.
of the most threatened sites in the whole of petra. this is the temple of winged lions, a religious complex built in around 27 ad. i like your office. this is a beautiful place. he is in charge of the site and started by telling unit of the problems when the temple was first excavated. they recovered this place but did not do a wonderful job of preserving it forfuture generations. whenever you excavate a monument, you have to pull a lot of dirt out of the ground to reveal itself as the earlier project on the lot of the earth and as you see we are trying to re excavate those earlier archaeological dumps. the dumps are huge mounds of compressed earth which will take years to sort through. at the moment, there s a team of local people tackling this mammoth task.
in the region today. oh, look! look at that mouth! the good news is that from once being in danger of extinction, numbers have climbed to over 500. the next much more welcome problem is if the sanctuary is actually big enough for their growing population. so the first part of my travels across india come to a close. but next week, i head to the north east of the country. i m on the banks of the mighty brahmaputra river and about to go to a very spiritual place. and the amount of people crammed on here as well it s going to be an experience! a region that prides itself on tradition and creativity. and a passionate desire to protect this unique part of the world forfuture generations.
