Dated 12th CenturyThe Nabataeans, also Nabateans, were ancient peoples of Jordan, whose oasis settlements in the time of Josephus (AD 37 c. 100), gave the name of Nabatene to the borderland between Syria and Arabia, from the Euphrates to the Red Sea. Their loosely-controlled trading network, which centered on strings of oases that they controlled, where agriculture was intensively practiced in limited areas, and on the routes that linked them, had no securely defined boundaries in the surrounding desert. Trajan conquered the Nabataean kingdom, annexing it to the Roman Empire, where their individual culture, easily identified by their characteristic finely-potted painted ceramics, became dispersed in the general Greco-Roman culture and was eventually lost.Jasper scarab last quarter of 6th century B.C.

The choice of persons, that Greeks would have considered barbarians, and the menacing faces on the three roundels in particular indicate that the trappings were intended to strike fear into the enemy. This impact was enhanced by a partial silver coating, traces of which remain. About 325-300 BCSolidus with Busts of Constans II and Constantine IV (obverse), 659-661. Byzantium, 7th century.
