Shivta is an ancient city located in the Negev Desert of Israel, known for its well-preserved Byzantine ruins. The site, which dates back to the 1st century BCE, was part of the Nabatean trade route and later thrived during the Byzantine period. Visitors can explore the remains of churches, residential buildings, wine presses, and an impressive water management system that adapted to the harsh desert environment.
