Petra, located in Jordan, is an ancient city carved into rose-colored sandstone cliffs that was once the capital of the Nabataean Kingdom. For centuries, the city's existence was unknown to the outside world until it was rediscovered in 1812 by a Swiss explorer. The impressive structures like the Treasury and the Roman-style theater were carved by the Nabataeans between the 6th century BC and 1st century AD. At its peak, Petra had over 30,000 inhabitants and was a major trading hub, but a powerful earthquake in the 6th century CE destroyed much of the city, after which it was abandoned.

The silk road
The Silk Road was a network of trade routes connecting China, India, and the Roman Empire that spanned over 5,000 miles. Traders used wagons and camels to transport goods like silk, metals, gems, glass, horses, and gold between Europe and China. The Silk Road facilitated economic and cultural exchange between distant civilizations for centuries. A German scholar coined the term "Silk Road" in the 19th century to describe these trans-Eurasian trade networks of antiquity.

2016 lives in ancient seasian cities
Southeast Asia had many ancient urban centers due to its location at the crossroads of global trade routes. Cities like Angkor, located in present-day Cambodia, grew to immense sizes due to control of long-distance trade of items like Chinese porcelain. Urban centers commonly had fortified walls and zones for trade, with women playing a major role in markets. Archaeological evidence also shows multi-ethnic populations in ancient Southeast Asian cities, including Chinese, Indian, and Persian influences. Major polities like the Hindu-Buddhist Majapahit kingdom in Java governed extensive urban networks into the 15th century CE.
Silk road
The Silk Road was a network of trade routes connecting East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean world from the 2nd millennium BC to the 15th century AD. Jade, nephrite, lapis lazuli, spinel, and other precious goods were traded from mines in modern day Xinjiang, China and Badakhshan, Afghanistan. The expansion of Scythian cultures across Central Asia played an important role in the development of the Silk Road by encouraging long distance trade and enforcing tariffs. Various goods, technologies, and cultural influences were exchanged between Europe, China, and regions in between along these interconnected land and sea routes.
International trade "silk road"
The document discusses the Silk Road, an ancient network of trade routes connecting China to the Mediterranean region. It details how the Silk Road facilitated cultural exchange and the spread of religions from its inception in the 2nd century BC until its decline in the late Middle Ages.

The boundary element method (BEM) is used in this work to obtain the critical buckling parameters of
perforated plates. The plates have square geometry with central square hole. Compression is unidirectional and
uniformly applied at opposite edges. The values for buckling parameters are obtained for many values of thickness.
The shear deformation effect is included in the bending of plates using the isotropic model. The effect of geometric
nonlinearity is introduced by adding two integral in the formulation of the BEM: one is applied in the domain and the
other in the contour. The boundary integral can be related to one of the natural conditions according to the boundary
value problem. Quadratic continuous and discontinuous boundary elements were used. The source points were
positioned on the boundary. The singularity subtraction technique and the transformation of variables were used for
the Cauchy and weak type of singularities, respectively, when the integration is performed in elements containing the
source point. Rectangular cells were used to discretize the domain integral related to the geometric nonlinearity effect.
The results were compared with other authors.

City of-petra
Petra, located in Jordan, is one of the 7 New Wonders of the World. It was a city carved entirely out of rose-colored sandstone cliffs and was the capital of the Nabataean Kingdom between the 6th century BC and the 1st century AD. The city was lost to the western world for hundreds of years until a Swiss explorer rediscovered it in 1812. He was amazed by the massive temples, tombs, and theaters carved out of the rock face. Though now uninhabited, Petra reveals the sophistication of the Nabataean people through structures like the Treasury, a temple over 40 meters high, and a theater that could seat 4,000 spectators.
Petra Photo Album
Petra is an ancient Nabataean city in western Jordan known for its massive red sandstone facades carved into rock cliffs. It was inhabited around 1200 BCE by the Edomites and later the Nabataeans, whose greatest king was Aretas IV from 9 BCE to 40 CE. There are three ways to enter Petra - by riding a horse, riding a horse-drawn carriage, or walking through the Siq, a 2km narrow gorge with walls up to 80m high.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
