    64 B.C. Despite being forced to recognize Rome’s power,
    Petra reaches its zenith of splendor in this period
    —until the Roman emperor Trajan formally annexes the city in A.D. 106. A.D.

    363 Now part of the Byzantine Empire, several of Petra’s buildings are used as churches. \An earthquake seriously damages many structures, and the city is gradually abandoned.

    700-1096 Following the Islamic conquest,
    Petra becomes little more than a village.

    During the First Crusade, the Christian king of Jerusalem, Baldwin I,
    occupies Petra, now part of the barony of Karak.

    When you look at the evidence, Prophet Aarons Tomb is located a 2km walk from Petra on a barren hill
    where a mosque is now built, in the city of Wadi Musa 2km from Petra, there is a water spring that alledgely,
    Moses struck and water appeared from it.

    There is a strong presence of a Judaic history in the hills and mountains of Petra that many pilgrims
    of the Jews at the time of Mohammed would of been in close contact with the Bedouin tribes
    that roamed around Petra.

    The battles of early expansion of "Islam" are written in close proximty to Petra.

    The Quran is written in an Arabic Dialect from the regions of North West Arabia.

    The Ummayds chose their capital of Damascus which is 1400km from "Mecca",
    even in 8th century Arabia, it is too far conceived to think that the Arab political entity
    that centered around the Hijaz and the dynasties of the Arabs now ruled that far from their "home".

    To reach Damascus from Petra on horse would of taken a week and half maximum.

    My theory is that,

    1. During the turmoils of the Byzantine-Sassanid War, the local Bedouins and Nabatean Arabs
    who were puppets of the Romans and Sassanids adopted a war-like stance
    due to decreased trade due to ongoing wars.

    Many natives and clans were conscripted by the ruling puppets of the Roman province of Arabia Paetriar,
    wherein, they learnt the art of war.

    The Byzantine-Sassanid war was a multi-generational conflict that spanned hundreds of year
    and volunteers from either side.

    2. The natives of "Mecca" rose up in defiance of their Roman rulers when they were exhausted,
    and those same natives had trading contacts in Jerusalam and Damascus,
    they would of been masters of navigating geography around the land of modern Israel and Jordan.

    3. The Battles of Mu'tah and Tabuk are the earliest recorded battles of the Roman-Arab conflict,
    Mu'tah is a days march from Petra.

    It is logistically a nightmare to march thousands of troops across the desert in large droves to the impact of the environment.

    A well established City, close to an enemy camp with running water and bountiful crops would make it far easier to engage
    and stockpile resources from a location, such as Petra, to make such an offensvie achievable.

    3. To take advantage of the weakened Romans, they occupied the lands of the Jews, and Christians,
    and sought to establish a connection to the Abrahmic faiths by fabricating a lineage via Ishmael
    to give them soverigntiy from the line of Abraham by building temples in the place where former Jewish temples existed
    such as the Temple Mount, this is connected via the Jewish holy sights that were in close proximity
    to their native Arab/Bedouin sites such as Petra.

    4. The dynastical conflicts between the Ummayds and the Abbasaids were a political affair of war from pre existing rivarlies
    between Bedouin clans, rather than a religious difference, wherin propaganda was used to discredit the claims from either side,
    as the Arabs had grown far beyond their native homelands outstandingly, and political discourse had allowed the Arabs
    to divide into their own entities based in Iraq, North Africa, Egypt and Northern Arabia.

    5. Mecca was chosen as an arbituary median to start a fresh of the recently new religion,
    as it was geographically isolated from the events that took palce in Mesopotamia and the Levant.
