 The Nabateans   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
In the early 6th century BC, when the Edomites (Idumeans) exploited Judah's weakness in the south, it may be that the Nabateans were pressuring them.
By the late 4th century BC, however, conditions in the ancient world were such that the Nabateans could develop a wealthy domain from this plateau.
Just as the Seleucids had tried to subdue the Nabateans in 312 BC, so the Romans made several attempts to get their hands on that lucrative trade.

 Nabataeans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Babylonian captivity that began in 586 BCE opened a power vacuum in Judah, and as Edomites moved into Judaean grazing lands, Nabataean inscriptions began to be left in Edomite territory (earlier than 312 BC, when they were attacked at Petra without success by Antigonus I).
Petra or Sela was the ancient capital of Edom; the Nabataeans must have occupied the old Edomite country, and succeeded to its commerce, after the Edomites took advantage of the Babylonian captivity to press forward into southern Judaea.
That culture was naturally Aramaic; they wrote a letter to Antigonus in Syriac letters, and Aramaic continued to be the language of their coins and inscriptions when the tribe grew into a kingdom, and profited by the decay of the Seleucids to extend its borders northward over the more fertile country east of the Jordan.

In the fourth century BC, Egypt's imports of bitumen from the Dead Sea were running at an all-time high and for good reason: The substance was fast becoming the main ingredient in the Egyptians' most important religious ritual - mummification.
However, sometime in the fourth or fifth century BC, the Egyptians began to experience shortage of the aromatic resins, gathered from shrubs and trees, that they had relied upon exclusively for the operation.
Egypt's population around 300 BC was close to seven million, demand for bitumen was very large, and the Nabataeans knew that in the oil of the Dead Sea they had their hands on a fortune of immense proportions.

The Seleukid Era is based on a lunar calendar, beginning with the autumn of 312 BC.
The beginning of the Seleukid Era was set as follows: In 311 BC, shortly after capturing Babylon, Seleukos I Nikator began the enumeration of his satrapal years there.
Later in 305/4 BC, when Seleukos I took the diadem and assumed the royal title “King”, he retained the numbering of his regnal years in Babylon but employed the Makedonian calendar and thus pushed his accession year back to Dios, 312 BC (Dios was the first month of the Makedonian calendar; it corresponds to October-November).
