Nella ricca collezione lapidea del Museo Archeologico Privato dello Studium Biblicum Franciscanum a Gerusalemme (Israele), si conserva un piccolo ed interessante rilievo architettonico frammentario, che raffigura uno zodiaco nabateo. Del pezzo, ancora inedito, si conosceva pochissimo. Tuttavia, grazie alle ricerche di archivio e bibliografiche svolte, è stato possibile risalire al contesto originario del pezzo, che certamente faceva parte della decorazione architettonica del tempio nabateo di Khirbat At-Tannūr, in Giordania, interpretare correttamente la decorazione a rilievo e collocarlo cronologicamente.
