The stone urn on top of Petra's Treasury (Al-Khazneh) in Jordan is pitted with bullet holes. They aren't from a war: people shot at it hoping a legend was true.

Look at these holes in the urn on top of Petra's Treasury. They're bullet holes. Not from a war. A legend said a pharaoh had hidden his treasure inside that urn. For generations, treasure hunters fired at it, hoping it would crack open. But the whole building was carved straight out of the cliff. That urn is a solid stone carving of a jar. It never had an inside. The real find came from below. In 2024, archaeologists scanned with radar, found a hollow area and dug in. No gold. Instead, twelve skeletons, one still clutching a broken jug. People shot at solid stone for treasures that were never there. All they left were these bullet holes. Subscribe for a fact every day.
