What travelers say:

Djin blocks Not long after walking, I saw the Roman obelisk from a distance. This Roman obelisk is usually mentioned in conjunction with Bab el Siq Triclinium because they stack up and down, but they are two separate stone tombstone monuments. The upper layer of the Roman obelisk is the four typical long pyramid-shaped cones, which represent the spirit and are used in the symbolism of the Nabateans to commemorate the dead. In the middle of the depression there is a worn statue of a man in a cloak who represents the head of the family, the tomb in the tomb room below. The gables below the tomb room, accompanied by benches on three sides, depict the location of the restaurant. Here, a banquet is set up to honor the ancestors.
