- In the early 80's, Jordan and UNESCO expelled the people of the B’doul tribe from the ancient city of Petra, and declared it a world heritage site. In this film, director Marie-Claire Thouault invites us to share the intimacy of the B’doul of Petra, a tribe she has known for years. A behind-the-scenes look at what it means to live in what became one of the most visited and sought-after destinations on earth.
Extract from the documentary: “Petra: The hidden side of World heritage”
Direction: Marie-Claire Thouault
Production: Plan Large Production & Aligal Production

It's good to see documentaries like this which is beyond entertainment and can be a voice for the forgotten.
F them Life goes on and has been for thousands of years, Natural Selection is real thing!
Thank you for sharing this interesting documents.
It is a very hard Life but they coped well and happy with what they have.
NOT MATERIAL LIFE like the civilised World and never get enough .They dont miss what they dont have and the appreciation of "LESS IS MORE!!"
THIS DEFFINATELY will make them happy !!
Thank again for sharing this special document.
I believe it's so sad that the Bedouin were displaced as they WERE the protectors of Petra.
the documentation about Petra and Beduins with their interesting way of life - *SLICE* you bring us always great vistas and knowledge !Thanks very much for this🙏
I am so happy to see this slice of life of Bedunins.It is sad that they are misplaced,the Govt must-do something about them
Petra is a beautiful heritage sight,but without the tribes is a tragedy.
*@Rehana Suboor.* It's not necessary to evict people to preserve historical sites. Many cities are classified as World's Heritage by UNESCO, but still no one gets evicted. To name a few, Petrograd/St. Petersburg Russia, the old city of Fez Morocco, Mont-Saint-Michel in France,and so on, Italy has probably the most classified sites yet no one is evicted. Those noble Bedouins are being cheated by their own government.
I always thought ,Petra was empty.
Thank you for the documentary!
They smoke a lot!
This story was a fine reminder that some people just want the simple things of life. And that’s okay.
As usual, a Government can always be counted upon to fail in keeping their promises to people! This is so sad! These people had lived there as long as they can remember & why run them out? All to make a dollar! You can be sure that’s what it boils down to! Thank you, Slice, for bringing this to the light!

We went to Petra for a couple of days. 2 days was nowhere near long enough. The postcard site is pretty large, but the greater site is huge, with many people eking out a living. There are still quite a lot of people living in what most people would think of as ‘ancient Petra’.
Once again many thanks to Slice for the best documentaries.
Love this channel ❤️
we love Petra and the people, one guy said he'd show us a photo of his family....and produced his phone which showed his sheep !!!
You guys are awesome ❤❤
Love and support from India ❤❤
You would think that they would let them be, look at the information they have about the place. I didn't know this, I thought it was naturally abandoned.
I saw a kid sitting on the roof of the Monistory like on the opening shoot. Similar to this situation, the Egyptian government also relocated the generations of tomb builders out of its village just outside the Valley of the Kings at Luxor. Underground the village is more tombs to be escavated.
My guest house owner is one of those who s family was relocated to a newer village and he utilized his new land to build new house as guesthouse for tourists and grow bananas and sugar cane on the land. Its a small village, so maybe it's more manageable.
My observation during my visit to Petra on October 3&4 2021 was that Petra is an very organized museum, there's gate, ticket gate check etc. I don't know tribes should be living in an open air museum. The Bedouin still runs all the gift shops, horse, Camel 🐪 ride for tourist. The kids operating the donkey 🐴 ride were aggressive, they fought over who gets the customers. I didn't see tribes living in the caves. The city center is walking distance from the Treasury but very bumpy roads. The tour guide, taxi drivers said cost of living has been up.
I did witness a kid sitting on top of the ancients roof like the opening shoot.
Most awaited documentary 💟
THANKS SLICE, VERY INTERESTING AL YOUR DOCUMENTALS
Excellent work
People live in such conditions when their king invests millions in expensive property around the world.
They couldn't care less about the King, and the wealth he has.
You should come here Sri Lanka. We have lot of things to show you ❤️
Masha Allah very beautiful videos and very interested life is very hard Allah bless them Ameen
Worth watching tuned 🇰🇪
Ooo very nice video
The American and British voice actors definitely add immersion and authenticity to what looks like an otherwise great doccumentary 🤣
The everyday Jordanian working in the city speak English with a British accent, because their current king's mother is British. His half brother prince Hamza is half American because his mother - queen Noor is American. King Hussen had 4 wife's, each from different countries, so Jordan is multi cultures😅

*THANK YOU FOR SHARING* this great video.
There is no grass to be seen. I really wonder how those camels and the cheeps are raised.
Behind the Treasury, there's the mountains/ hills, it's the famous INDIANA Jones' Trials. There are trees, grass etc. There's are also horse barns near the ticketing Gates. I took a horse ride via the Indiana Jones trail and my guide showed me the barn. Tourists only see the front of the Treasury.
Please Turkish subtitles for better understanding of the videos.
please stick with subtitles next time, these dubs are awful I wanna hear their real voices, its kinda rude to erase them like this.
agree with this. 👍🏻
Agreed
Letting them continue to live there would be the most beneficial to everyone because they would still live there and be caretakers at the same time and visitors would see how they live and have lived for centuries!

They remind me of the American Indian,kicked out. My grandpa was part Creek Indian from Florida. He was the best man I ever meet. He taught me so many things about GODS creation. . I have been mocked because I wear long sleeves long dresses ,pants,head coverings because he taught me that I would sweat and keep cool on the Florida heat. Since a child I have done this while others get sick. My grandpa was wise, I thank GOD for him . Soon to be 68 and I still wear long everything like the Bedouins ,Crystal
I am very glad to know the Bedouins do the same,very wise.Crystal
Must reply... How do you recruit people for channel... ?

Good 🌕🌕🌕
It seems there might have been a split in the group as to if they should leave Petra. Looks like the majority wanted to leave for the houses provided by the government and some remained. It's a tough situation I don't think they should have been put in a position to have to make a choice to leave or stay without a home. I understand the government wanted to protect the site but they could have worked with the tribe. I think the government just wanted to make the site available for tourism.
Subtitles would have been better than voice-overs.
I find these voice-overs so grating that I can't even watch this documentary in its entirety. Moreover, you can't call yourselves "Accessible to anyone" if you do voice-overs over Arabic and French language speakers and only have subtitles in English. That's patently NOT accessible.
Those people should compensation
for they land
The petra was added to world heritage site for the whole of humanity but sadly humans were unfit to be living there.

I admire watching this kind of documentary which try to give voice for the voiceless. All politicians and ruling class lies to the people who are living at the bottom of the society.

How did their ancestors crave out Petra when the tribes could not repeat the feat now? That's the million dollar question.
they didnt , it was their roman and greek overlord
Red man leave africa and become caveman in Petra. Red man make babies with humanoids/nephilim, then call himself White man....

[1]Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.
[2]Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;
[3]And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.
[6]And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.
[8]Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.
[9]And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir:
[19]These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these are their dukes.
[20]These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,
[21]And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these are the dukes of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom.
[40]And these are the names of the dukes that came of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names; duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth,
[43]Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these be the dukes of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites.

There are documentaries on CZcams on how it was carved
they waiting for lisan al-gaib
these people are part of petra, without them it has no context, it has probably been used by people like them for eons. plus tourists will love to meet them and buy their handicrafts. They should be allowed to stay, with measures in place to protect certain buildings

القصر سليمان ✍️⚖️ الله
Not even a tree just like Mecca, just sand and dust
There are trees 🎄 and grass behind the Treasury, it's called the Indiana Jones trail, tourist can hire a horse with Bedouin guide to reach the top across the Treasury for the best picture. The 🐴 horses know how to get back down to the barn themselves😅
The Jordan Could Not Have Touched The Peopee of Bedouins they could have it preserved with its local to keep the culture and hire them to be guardians of Petra ..sad to say it was really unfair and injustice for these wonderful people

The world heritage site organization had no right whatsoever to go in and lie to these people and displacing them that organization should be destroyed now because they destroyed a lifestyle but also lives and suffer because of this
The Jordanian government moved them, the Jordanian government applied for the world heritage title
The Jordan state should have at least build homes for them.
It did it's It's um sahoun
This is so wrong the Bedouin have more rights to this site than all the tourists and the government. But under the name of protection they have to leave their home
When rocks are more important than ppl..
Edomites
Arrrgghhhh researcher always ruined the culture....
