Paul Salopek, the official walker of the @ナショナルジオグラフィック @outofedenwalk project, last year writing under moonlight, dwarfed in the historic Nabataean ruins of Mada'in Saleh, Saudi Arabia, carved into sandstone mountains thousands of years ago. A pre-Islamic people, the Nabataeans carved palatial tombs in a vast area that today stretches from Petra in present day Jordan, south into Mada'in Salih, Saudi Arabia. The Nabataean kingdom was conquered by the Roman Empire around 20 BC.

Be sure to pick up the March 2015 issue of National Geographic magazine for part IV of the Out of Eden Walk where Paul Salopek and I traveled overland through Turkey along the Syrian border where we witnessed last August the tragic exodus of more than 130,000 Syrians fleeing Kobani in Syria, migration based upon forced migration, as we continue our journey retracing humanities footsteps out of Africa that began some 60,000 years ago.

All my best, John Stanmeyer
