JOJO’s wonderful trip.

This ruin on the top

This ruin on the top of Castle Hill is the beginning of Jordanian civilization. In the eleventh century BC, a group of Egyptians who were abandoned after the defeat came to the place with the faith of Amon, and established their own small kingdom on the top of the mountain. It was called Abbas Amon. Because Amman is located at the intersection of Europe, Asia and Africa on three continents, the military is in a battleground. Therefore, Amman has been subjected to foreign aggression many times in history. It was occupied by Assyrians, Persians and Greeks, and later became Rome. The province of the empire. After West Asia was conquered by the Roman Empire, the Roman emperor routinely conducted a patrol of the land of the East during the coronation. One was to familiarize the manager with his land, and the other was to let the emperor's ceremonial ceremonies serve the Quartet. Anthony Asylum, one of the emperors, was on this tour, and after seeing the shape of the hill, he built a temple on the top of the mountain for his most adored Hercules, only from the few remaining today. The roots of the temple can be seen at the root of the temple. Now I can find the hand of the statue of Hercules abandoned in the ruins. It is as big as two of me. When the conquered nomads saw the Hercules on the top of the mountain, it was the Holy Roman. The solemn momentum of the empire makes people feel uncomfortable.
