“…For example, in the eastern Badia of Jordan, guiding walls are often located on plateaus, and frequently integrate water sources, that would have represented an ideal starting point to round up and chase animals towards the kite (Abu-Azizeh and Tarawneh, 2015; Helms and Betts, 1987). Moreover, enclosures that form the ‘heads’ of kites are often found beyond the crest of a slope, or inside naturally enclosed spaces and obscured from view (Abu-Azizeh and Tarawneh, 2015; Crassard et al, 2022), a characteristic that was already evident in earliest descriptions of kite structures (Rees, 1929). While in some regions the orientation of kites face in one direction, other regions appear to show more variability.…”
