A History Hit television documentary episode in which presenter Tristan Hughes travels to Petra and climbs to its mountaintop High Place of Sacrifice, a site with its own sacrificial altar once used to honour the Nabataeans' own gods. The producing platform's own page describes the gods of Petra as having "lived in the skies," touching Nabataean religious practice through the site itself rather than through a dedicated treatment of the religion or a named deity.
