Abdharetat
Abdharetat , son of Abdʿobodat, was a Nabataean stonemason who worked in Hegra in the early 1st century .
Abdharetat is known from an inscription on Qasr es-Sane , a tomb facade in the Nabatean city of Hegra. According to the inscription, Abdharetat created this grave facade in the 17th year of the reign of King Aretas IV , i.e. in the year 8/9. The facade was made in the usual urban style of the stair tomb. His brother Wahballahi was also a stonemason, and his son Abdʿobodat continued the family tradition.
