The Nabateans established their kingdom in the third century BCE, and their religious practices were shaped by the cultural exchange with neighboring civilizations. The region's unique geography, marked by mountains, oases, and trade routes, contributed to the development of a distinct polytheistic tradition.
Due to their aniconic worship practices, images or depictions of Nabataean gods may not exist or be nonexistent.
The Nabateans believed in multiple local gods and deities with various roles, but specific abilities are unknown. They performed sacrifices and conducted rituals to appease these deities.
