The Desert Ark Brooch
a part of the Inheritance Collection, inspired by petroglyphs carved onto walls.
Ancient Bedouin people are the traditional inhabitants of the region as they lived and traveled across the desert land. The petroglyphs tell us stories about the history and evolution of human activity in Arabia, the petroglyphs are drawings of humans and animals like camels, ibex, and horses. And alongside all these figures are symbols like lines and circles. Experts concluded that they are instructions and messages left by the people for one another. Some of them are about giving directions to find hidden springs. And others are about updating each other on things like who visited the area last. Altogether, these engravings provide an insight into the development of human thought. They show a pattern of pastoral, agricultural, and urban human activity.
These petroglyphs were found in the Jordan desert and date back to prehistoric times.
