    One of the four famous Tombs of the Kings, located to the right of the main path.
    The name derives from the vessel that crowns the pediment. It was probably around 70 AD. built. In front of him is a courtyard with columns on either side. There are three small tombs in the facade. The monument was used as a church from 446 AD.

    The urn grave got its name from the jug that crowns the gable. The Bedouins also call the monument al-Mahkamah (court). The tomb stands out among royal tombs for its complexity and was probably built around 70 AD.
    The tomb has a multi-story substructure with vaults. Stairs lead up to a large colonnaded courtyard in front of the urn tomb, where you have a spectacular view of ancient Petra.
